Film: Berlin Alexanderplatz

Berlin Alexanderplatz (2020, Germany, dir. Burhan Qurbani, 183 mins.)

An African immigrant struggling to make a new life for himself in Germany soon realizes how difficult it is to be righteous while being undocumented, and as his life spirals out of control he is eventually sucked in Berlin's underworld in this timely reinterpretation of Alfred Döblin’s novel about a man who tried to be good “but then ran out of money.”
