Café am Zoo and cinema advertising on Kurfürstendamm, Berlin 1932

On the nighttime Kurfürstendamm, pedestrians and a double-decker bus pass the brightly lit Café am Zoo, its neon lettering dominating the street. A cinema advertises the film 'Die Herrin von Atlantis', directed by G. W. Pabst in 1932 after the novel by Pierre Benoit and shot simultaneously in German, French and English versions. Automat restaurants and neon signs define this fashionable entertainment district in western Berlin shortly before the end of the Weimar Republic.
