Latest News About Cave's Berlin years: a Dutch documentary

The film Nick Cave: Stranger in a Strange Land is a 1987 Dutch TV film by Bram van Splunteren, shot during Cave's Berlin years and featuring rehearsals with the Bad Seeds and scenes from Mark Reeder's flat. It stages Cave amid Berlin's nocturnal, alienated milieu and emphasizes his persistent artistic drive despite rough periods. The film is cited as a snapshot of Cave's early formation and Berlin period, with emphasis on his mood, poverty, and changing persona during that era. It frames part of Cave's transition from London's post-punk scene to a more mythic, self-styled figure that would define his later career. The documentary is still cited as a key visual record of his 1987 period and the Bad Seeds' creative work.
