It is February 1983, and Berlin is a divided city, a miles-long barricade separating east from west. But the city isn t the only thing that is divided. Ada, almost 16, lives with her mother and grandmother among the rebels, punkers and immigrants of Kreuzberg, just west of the wall. Stefan, 18, lives east with his brooding grandmother in a faceless apartment bunker of Friedrichshain, his telescope pointed toward freedom.
