Someone Get On This

How is it possible that this documentary has never been given English subtitles?

Berlin Muren

Mrs. Wall. No, seriously, that's her name.

 

The video Berlinmuren (2008) tells the story of a highly unusual relationship: the love affair between the Swedish woman Eija-Riita Berliner-Mauer and the Berlin Wall. She considers November 9th, 1989, the day the Wall “fell,” the saddest day of her life. Berliner-Mauer now lives in Liden in northern Sweden where, besides running a museum that displays models of guillotines and the Berlin Wall, she moderates a number of websites about the Wall and the phenomenon of human love for objects.

Also someone/publication ought to give me the money to go visit this chick and write a profile on her.  Paging David Remnick…
