Verbieten verboten
Synopsis
Eight short episodes about the psychological and sexual hardships and joys of people in West Berlin at the time: two old-school bourgeois women chat with each other on the street, between the Theater des Westens and a peep show. A woman's session with her psychotherapist takes an unexpected turn. Two men spontaneously arrange to meet for a tête-à-tête, but are in for a surprise. A vagrant tells of her recent experiences and longings. Two young women become unprofessional while watching a porn movie. Two foreigners make a discovery while having sex with each other. A painter finds new inspiration in an unconventional way. Dieter Schidor and Ingrid Caven chat with each other on the street, between the Theater des Westens and a (former) peep show about sex in the age of AIDS.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 11
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
