Music Mondays Presents Here We Come: The History of Breakdancing in East Germany
It's the second-last Music Monday at the original Alamo Downtown, so if you haven't been in a while (or if, God forbid, you've NEVER been) tonight is the night.
Here We Come is a documentary chronicling the rise of Hip Hop and Breakdance culture in communist East Germany during the 1980s--which, we imagine, was an incredibly bizarre time to be involved in any music scene there.
Director Nico Raschick describes the film as "a documentary, part comic, part tragic which couldn’t have been told better by a script-writer. It is about the development of a whole culture from its beginnings in the youngster’s family homes up to some of East Germany’s largest stages."
