A 1981 biographical drama directed by Uli Edel and written by Herman Weigel, Christiane F. is a raw and unflinching portrayal of youth, addiction, and survival in West Berlin. Based on a true story, the film follows a teenage girl drawn into the city’s drug scene.
Featuring the music of David Bowie, the film captures a bleak yet hauntingly atmospheric portrait of a generation on the edge. Its realism and emotional weight have cemented its status as a cult classic.
