Screenplay: Berlin Heist

TV Show.

8 Episodes

Berlin Heist is a comedy-thriller series set in the chaotic heart of contemporary Berlin, where four mismatched flatmates, each broke, disillusioned, and out of options, decide to rob their corrupt landlord to save their crumbling building from gentrification. Led by Phoebe, a British con artist hiding out in Berlin while searching for her estranged father, the group navigates anarchist rooftop parties, fake art residencies, dominatrix side-hustles, and Kafkaesque visa struggles in a city that’s equal parts utopia and trap. At once a housing-crisis satire and a messy love letter to found family, Berlin Heist asks: what would you risk to stay in the only place that still feels like home?
