Anderson (2014)


Sascha Anderson, born 1953, was the charismatic pop star of East Berlin’s oppositional literary scene in Prenzlauer Berg in the 1980s, a close acquaintance of famous GDR intellectuals such as Christa Wolf and Heiner Müller - and he was a zealous informer working for the Stasi, snitching on friends and colleagues.

Intense and fascinating investigation of  betrayal; the figure of Sascha Anderson remains enigmatic, even in the present-day interviews.
