The tourists are back, the clubs in Berlin are partying as ever. But behind the scenes, it shows just how badly the pandemic has damaged the capital’s DNA.

The wood market is called Kreativdorf and is an ideal-typical Berlin place. In the seemingly motley buildings on the banks of the Spree, studios, co-working spaces, event rooms and places to celebrate are lined up next to each other. This is where musicians have their studios and filmmakers have their offices, but you can also just come onto the premises as a passer-by to hang out in the shade of the trees. The transitions between productivity and hedonism are fluid here.
