Prix Europa, October 20-27, 2012, Berlin<\/p>\n

This Ain\u00b4t California<\/a><\/em>, Germany, 96 min., 2011, was nominated for the TV Documentary category.<\/p>\n

A few words about the film from the Prix Europa catalogue:<\/p>\n

In 90 minutes, we see the GDR more sharply, more clearly: the skater subculture shows that not all was grey-on drab clouds of Trabant fumes. This film takes original clips of the \"wheel-board rides\" - straight out of East Germany in the 80s - and mixes it with animations and re-encounters with the protagonists today in a documentary narrative<\/strong>.
\nAfter the debate at Prix Europa 2012 about the film, the producer chose to withdraw the film from the competition.<\/p>\n
