I'll go get...
It's war? Will there be war?
Today, on 1 May, I'm in Kreuzberg,
on a quest for a revolutionary positive utopia
in the year 2013.
Manifesto of the Communist Party.
There's a ghost...
You're talking to the right person.
I'm Polish.
Here is the smartest 1 May T-shirt,
Gyspy, Jewish & Gay.
What's your positive utopia?
We should create a world without borders
with free movement.
One question.
*** you. There's no true life within false life.
Where could mankind be going?
I don't know.
Either capitalism or communism, which...?
You have fiery eyes, you're human.
You've got it. What could we improve on?
Your path shall be long and full of stones.
Socialism is a very good fundamental idea.
I'd say people are too selfish for that.
They only think of themselves.
Maybe there'll be a time when computers rule
and we have the excuse of our consumerism
and being happy and stuff.
One nuclear bomb and it's all over, anyway.
Who cares, today it's war in Berlin.
Yes, you said that earlier.
Today it's us against them.
Who are the others?
The police.
ACAP.
What's your utopia in 2013?
Where could we go?
We need some form of socialism.
1 May is a day when we should think
about the workers,
about those who create the surplus value
and how they can get their fair share
of the wealth of society.
I think the worst is yet to come.
I want your utopia. Your utopia!
Here, the Spartacists. Down with Imperialist EU,
for a United Socialist States of Europe.
The ones who work and create all the value
should be the rulers.
Turn around.
Oh? They walk around...
POLICE
What if I don't want to work? If my utopia...
Two or three hours should be enough.
Marry a rich woman.
Marry a rich woman. OK.
Will we have more love?
In communism?
In principle, yes.
Alright. Oh look, it's Jan Muche again.
Look, here are the Spartacists,
they have a utopia.
Are you against the Spartacists?
I find them creepy. But no, I'm not against them.
Here, this goes well with your T-shirt.
Oh, I've got that myself.
Socialisation of the means of production,
a flat hierarchy, citizens taking over companies,
like it's happening in Greece now,
that could be the future.
He's making sense.
Direct democracy. We'll copy Iceland
and maybe it works.
They elected the Conservatives
who caused the crisis.
Yes, but the mayor of Reykjavik is a punk.
SOLIDARITY IS OUR WEAPON
I'm in.
Hipsters out, get it?
Away with them. Hipsters out.
Everyone has to work.
We have to work. No pain, no gain.
Anarchy!
OK, 1 May backstage
in the backyards of Berlin Kreuzberg 36 and...
Get lost. Get lost!
The police are here... Leave him alone,
he can check your statement.
Love your neighbour...
without the Bible's copyright...
in a way you and the others like your scent.
So, Flowin Immo says love is the utopia.
Love for human beings.
Armed battle is our only chance.
International association, right?
You can't do it on your own.
We have to overcome borders,
tear down walls and unite with your brothers
and sisters everywhere.
Here's Kreuzberg legend GiĆ² di Sera himself.
Naunyn Ritze is around the corner.
We're in Naunynstrasse on 1 May.
It needs to be fairer.
No-one should earn 500 times more than others.
SPD PARTY WHIP
No-one's work performance could justify that.
Alright, Karl Marx. Say a few closing words.
The comrades are on the right path.
We had trouble here 150 years ago.
If you don't want to be my brother,
I'll smash your face in.
Are you nuts, man?
