Escape Knows No Borders
A round building wears a ring of slogans, and across the top: Die Flucht kennt keine Grenzen, escape knows no borders. The ‘DIE WELT’ balloon floats above it all again. People pass in front of the blue panorama posters, a couple deep in talk, an old man pushing his bike, a man in a cap who stares back at me. At the Friedrichstraße corner, a man with a brown leather backpack crosses through the pigeons and the tourists.
