In our "Weekender" newsletter you will find tips for the weekend, whether you want to go out or make yourself comfortable at home. Our cultural editor: Interior have put together a selection of personal recommendations for you.
For all film fans there are currently a variety of options in Berlin. In addition to the film "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning, Part 1" and "Oppenheimer" by director Christopher Nolan, Greta Gerwig's film also starts. The latter attracts a lot of attention in advance and is referred to as an ironic declaration of love by the director. In his criticism, Andreas Busche writes that Gerwig takes a step on the way to the largest Hollywood director of the present. If you would like to learn more about the film, you will find all the criticism here. Inga Barthels also tells you what role the barbie doll plays in our society. "Barbie" has a runtime of 114 minutes and starts in the cinemas on July 20th.
If you like to eat well, you should visit the "Richard" star restaurant in Kreuzberg. Here the patron Hans Richard opened a bistro that offers a bistro kitchen in addition to the star menus. Ulrich Amling's restaurant criticism already speaks of a “new ease of being”. The bistro is open from Thursday to Saturday, the restaurant from Monday to Wednesday. You can find more information here.
Would you prefer to stay at home? Then you should listen to the song "Rush" by the Australian singer Troye Sivan. The associated music video was shot in Berlin and causes a stir before publication. Tobias Langley-Hunt took a closer look at the video and also reports on the criticism from the queer community. You will also find recommendations for the latest pop albums of the week in our article.
You can also learn more about the moderator Ruth Moschner in our Ringbahn podcast "A Round Berlin". In a conversation with Ann-Kathrin Hipp, she not only talks about her career on German television, but also about personal experiences with misogyny and abuse of power. You can find the podcast on Tagesspiegel.de and on all common podcast platforms.
To read, we recommend the book "The Moscow Connection" by Reinhard Bingener and Markus Wehner. The book reconstructs the beginning of friendship between Gerhard Schröder and Vladimir Putin and highlights the "greatest mistake in German foreign policy since the Federal Republic was founded". In his review, Cornelius Dieckmann describes this mistake, which only became apparent with the raid of Russia on Ukraine.
As a last recommendation, we would like to recommend the tour at the University of the Arts in Berlin. From Friday to Sunday you have the opportunity to visit workshops, studios, studios and rehearsal rooms and get to know the results of the artistic work of the courses. Teresa Rübel has put together some highlights for you.
No matter what activity you choose, there is something for everyone in Berlin. Have fun with your weekend plans!
