Berlin Voices # 3 - Thomas Klein (Part 1 of 2)

Meet Thomas Klein, a film critic, who also works at Berlin's one-of-a-kind video/dvd rental shop -- the Videodrom. We had a lot to talk about so this interview is split into two podcasts. The first is about Thomas and the interesting history of the Videodrom including Germany's weird "youth protection" (censorship) laws which actually resulted in the Videodrom being shut down for several weeks by the Berlin business administration and the Police.
