BERLIN is a love story set in occupied Berlin following World War II. Ernst Reuter--exiled by the Nazi’s during the war--is forced to return home to a city under Allied control. Against the backdrop of the emerging Cold War and the Berlin Airlift, Ernst fights to keep his family together in a city that is about to be torn apart.
Based on the true events of the Berlin Airlift, BERLIN blends history and fiction to tell a story of uncommon love and unlikely heroes.
