  • It’s Never Zu Spät
    Sep 18 2023

    “It’s Never Zu Spät” is a sonic meditation on dating, friendship, and bonding in Berlin. We’ve gathered a mix of real stories, reflections, and rants from real people, who in their own words weave a rich tapestry of the journey to find themselves and others. We discuss queer love, chosen family, hard breakups, and soulful rediscoveries - a wide range of experiences many in Berlin (and beyond!) might resonate with.
