A 360° shot from Schönhauser Allee reveals Stargarder Straße 3A’s neglected courtyard, where tenants, spurred by community leader Michalski, restore its greenery. Built in 1900 as a social-democratic workers’ cooperative, “the red block” once housed activists, ran its own kindergarten and summer fêtes. Wartime saw Nazi block wards, Post-’45 resident Bruno return, and ’50s festivals fade. By the ’60s, tenant turnover and mixed generations reshaped its life. Now, the film crew’s presence reunites residents for the first courtyard celebration since 1952, closing past and present.
