A vivid look back at Chemnitz in 1995, when a small East German city became a breeding ground for counterculture and rising extremism. This video dives into the punk scene that thrived amid post-reunification chaos — squats, loud bands, rebellion, and a fight for identity in a city scarred by unemployment and political tension. Against this backdrop, the seeds of the far-right NSU network began to form in the same streets. Through rare footage and firsthand stories, the film captures a raw clash of worlds: young punks standing for resistance and freedom, while underground networks of hate quietly took root nearby.
