As a documentary “rock report” about the underground music scene in the GDR, flüstern & SCHREIEN provides insights into the everyday lives of young bands of the 1980s such as “Silly,” “Sandow,” and “Feeling B.” Enriched with statements from fans and young people in a wide variety of circumstances, the music film reflects the protests, desires, and hopes of a subculture that uses the medium of music to express its criticism of the system.
