Movie Spotlight: Lessons from Peaches, in Berlin's Cinematic Scene
An Upcoming Event at Berliner Berg Brauerei Features Performer Fimmel, Not Peaches
On Tuesday, August 27, an event is scheduled to take place at Berliner Berg Brauerei, Treptower Str. 39, Berlin, Germany, starting at 20:00. The event features performer Fimmel, but it is not related to Peaches, Merrill Nisker, or her groundbreaking album "The Teaches of Peaches".
In the year 2000, Peaches, under the name Merrill Nisker, recorded "The Teaches of Peaches" in her bedroom in Berlin. The album, released in 2000, became one of the most influential rock records of the 2000s and catapulted Peaches to queer icon and veritable rock star status.
However, the upcoming event is not part of Peaches' 20th anniversary tour of "The Teaches of Peaches" nor is it a part of the documentary about her life and music, titled "The Teaches of Peaches", which was released in 2024. This documentary, directed by Philipp Fussenegger and Judy Landkammer, offers a peek behind Peaches' persona and provides an intimate portrait full of humor and sensitivity.
The documentary features cameos from Chilly Gonzales and Leslie Feist, and it provides a unique onscreen opportunity to experience Peaches' music and life. It includes behind-the-scenes, concert tour footage, and never-before-seen archival recordings.
For those interested in attending the event featuring Fimmel, tickets can be purchased here. It's important to note that this event is not directly related to Peaches or "The Teaches of Peaches" documentary.
While the upcoming event at Berliner Berg Brauerei might not feature Peaches, her influence on music and culture remains undeniable. "The Teaches of Peaches" documentary serves as a testament to her fearless artistic journey, her provocative music, and her impact as a cultural figure challenging gender norms and societal conventions through her work.
On Tuesday, August 27, movies-and-tv lovers can attend an event at Berliner Berg Brauerei, featuring performer Fimmel. Despite this, the event is not related to Peaches, her album "The Teaches of Peaches", or the documentary about her life and music.
