For almost 50 years, the Hotel Bogota in Berlin-Charlottenburg was an institution. The small hotel at Schlüterstraße 45 — built in 1911 — was a house with a great deal of history. Helmut Newton trained here under "Yva", then the most famous fashion photographer in Germany. Newton later said this had been the finest time of his life. The actor Ilja Richter tells this story in his first documentary film. Former guests have their say, as do historians, writers and artists — and the Rissmann family of hoteliers. Hanna Schygulla, Dieter Hallervorden, Dani Levy, Jim Rakete and many more bring the past back to life.Ilja Richter and the announcement of his film about the Hotel Bogota.
