Cabaret-Berlin, the Wild Scene

Structured as a cabaret show and composed entirely of rare visual and sound archival material, Cabaret-Berlin, The Wild Scene explores Berlin during the 20s and early 30s, when it was home to Europe’s most innovative and experimental artists, writers, and musicians, and where Jews played a leading role.

Directed by Fabienne Rousso-Lenoir, Cabaret-Berlin, the Wild Scene leans on a strong ensemble — Ulrich Tukur, Friedrich Ebert, Valeska Gert — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2025.
