Thousands of soccer fans arriving this month for World Cup matches in Berlin may find the newly opened Central Station as thrilling as any penalty shoot-out. The $905 million depot consists of a soaring, 321-m-long, 9,000-glass-pane hall covering tracks[an error occurred while processing this directive] running east to west, a 46-m-high barrel-vaulted steel-and-glass hall and two rectangular office buildings running parallel to the underground north-south lines, plus a shopping galleria.

Because every social problem is clearly due to some political mistake." Panahi was denied a license to shoot Offside, so, using a fake name, he submitted a phony synopsis about a group of boys attending a football game and got the Ministry's approval. Without the equipment or funding that the government hands out to other directors, he shot with a digital camera and small crew. Five days...
