Berlin, Berlin (2002–2005)

Warning: Spoilers
'Berlin, Berlin' is a soap-series, set in the Berlin of and around 2002-2003. It's about young adults in their twenties, dealing with today's relation-problems.

This series is greatly carried by its competent female lead Felicitas Woll. The world is shown through Felicitas' eyes and mind, extended at times by a very funny & original use of short animation films.

For the more aged among my readers: 'Berlin, Berlin' reminds one of the successful English series 'Man about the House', from the 1970-s.

Although unmistakeably German, 'Berlin, Berlin' nowhere and never puts any weight on you. It provides amusement, set in a very recognizable day-to-day setting. And it does so very well.
