A look back at a cruel conflict, the Franco-Prussian War (1870-71), which changed the political geography of Europe and sowed the seeds of a deep antagonism between France and Germany that culminated in two world wars. Excerpts from the diaries of the witnesses, photographs and painted panoramas tell the truth about a forgotten war.

Of all the remarkable events of this century perhaps the most fascinating has been the spontaneous growth, flowering and then decay of a handful of great cities. These cities were places where art, culture and political liberties co-mingled with corruption, brutality and decadence. Everything and just about anyone could be bought and sold. The immigrant would struggle beside the artist. Gamblers, thieves and prostitutes co-habited with soul-savers, the rich and the powerful. The exhilarating combination of the seamy with the sublime made these places a magnet for all the lost souls and refugees of the world. Pushing the limits of tolerance and freedom, they defined the social, political and sexual culture of the 20th century. Their names ring out: Paris of the '20s, Berlin of the '20s and '30s and Shanghai of the '30s.

One of the oldest capitals in Europe - and one of the youngest: Paris and Berlin have fought, reconciled, influenced each other and together they have written an eventful history. The urban design still bears witness to this. The series tells the story of how the two cities have changed since 1650.

Berlin 1933 – Diary Of A Metropolis tells the story of how Berlin, the vibrant hub of modernity, became Germany's staunch capital city in step with the Third Reich. Contemporary journals, letters and documents, photographs and film material, form a dense collage of the dynamics of this collectively organised disaster.
