West­ern­town

The „Spreepark Plänterwald“ was the most popular amusement park in the DDR. After the fall of the wall the park was mismanaged into financial ruin. For 4 years this area at the edge of Berlin lies in a state of hibernation: nature is taking back its land; the fairground rides are overgrown with ivy; the fencing has numerous holes, making the job harder for the security personnel. Inside this zone lays a small westerntown. Here Peter and Nancy Schiller live with their five children. They are all hardy country fans.
