BBC's 'Bowie In Berlin' to Reveal Star's Transformative Years
The BBC has unveiled plans for a new documentary, 'Bowie in Berlin', delving into David Bowie's transformative years in the city from 1976 to 1978. Directed by Francis Whately and executive produced by Louis Theroux, the documentary is set to premiere on BBC Two and iPlayer this autumn.
The film will centre on Bowie's retreat from fame during this period, as he sought to overcome addiction and rediscover his musical roots. This introspective journey resulted in the creation of the iconic Berlin Trilogy: 'Low', 'Heroes', and 'Lodger'.
In addition to exploring Bowie's personal growth, the documentary will also examine his influence on Iggy Pop's early solo career. It will delve into the making of Pop's influential albums 'The Idiot' and 'Lust For Life', which were recorded during Bowie's time in Berlin.
'Bowie in Berlin' promises unique insights, featuring rare interviews with four women who Bowie considered his muses: Clare Shenstone, Romy Haag, Sarah-Rena Hine, and Sydne Rome. The documentary will also draw on archival footage to paint a vivid picture of Bowie's time in the city.
With its focus on Bowie's personal and musical evolution, 'Bowie in Berlin' is set to offer fans and newcomers alike a fresh perspective on one of music's most influential figures. The documentary promises to be a must-watch for anyone interested in the creative process and the impact one artist can have on another.
