Linie 1 is a German punk musical made in West Berlin in the late 1980s. The acting and the songs have something clumsy about them, but the makers' hearts are clearly passionate.
Fighting for a new Germany, disapproval of the Nazi regime and the feeling of freedom and joy is what the film manages to convey throughout its entire running time. Objectively there is a lot to criticize about this film, but the energy, rawness, social commitment and, above all, hope for a better future still make this a relevant and pleasant viewing experience.
