Berlin Fiction

Berlin Fiction

Berlin Fiction follows the journey of DJ Lion, a talented but struggling techno artist in Berlin. After years of performing at the world’s top clubs, DJ Lion finds himself at a crossroads—his passion for electronic music remains, but financial pressures, industry disillusionment, and the fading support of his manager threaten to derail him. One sleepless night, in a moment of creative desperation, he discovers a new path by accident: writing and composing pop music.

Lion’s unexpected venture into commercial music brings fresh inspiration, but it also exposes the harsh realities of the industry, testing his friendships and beliefs about artistry and success. As he wrestles with the betrayal of his trusted manager, Axel, and confronts his fears of selling out, DJ Lion must decide whether to stay true to his roots or embrace change for a chance at survival.

Set against the vibrant yet lonely backdrop of Berlin’s music scene, Berlin Fiction is a poignant exploration of ambition, burnout, and the fine line between artistic integrity and commercial success.

Directed by Zhivorad Milich (Germany)
