SubBerlin - Underground United(de)

The original Tresor was in many ways the quintessential Berlin club: located in an unrenovated vault beneath a bombed out department store, it opened its doors amidst the general confusion and ecstasy that swept across the city when the wall fell. Its low ceilings, industrial decor and generally unhinged atmosphere created an unprecedented platform not only for techno in Berlin, but also for the scene taking shape across the Atlantic in Detroit.

Your Parents Will Come Back(es)

In 1983 a group of 154 children aged 3 and 17 years old traveled alone from Europe to Montevideo.
