Abstract

Berlin, war of the images of shared memory (1945-1989), Christian Delage. On 2 May 1945, a war of images began between the Allies, then between the two Berlins. For the East as for the West, it was a question of organizing propaganda and counter attack by means of the cinema, so as to legitimize the actions of the two opposing cold war camps. The stakes were large, because in the divided city, two worlds were constantly pitted against each other. The study of film production shows that the image which the two parts of the city gave of themselves was not easy to establish, and that it took decades for the patterns to take form. After the rapid unification, it is not certain that the end of the division of the Berlin memory will occurre at the same pace.
