The Battle of Tuntenhaus 1991

Directed by Juliet Bashore

The Tuntenhaus or "House of Queers" was originally a squat on Mainzer Str. in East Berlin. This gritty verité documentary follows the fortunes of the Tuntenhaus through the days of anarchy and riots that followed German reunification to the sudden invasion by 3000 West German police, armed with tanks and tear gas in a massive operation to evict them.
