Hiya Raymond,

Robin already told us this, see his message
("underground movies/ siny shiny fish") for details
about how it really works.

I fell for it completely, but it's like that story
that db was saying about editing stuff so people say
things they didn't say. I expect that they didn't even
send an empty suitcase into the tunnels. It would be
easy to edit so it looked like they did especially
with that style of filming.

I did wonder how they got so much stuff into the
suitcase! ;)

Still it is a fun little movie. :)

Ironically, the way Robin says it works seems even
harder to make work in a way. :) I still like it aand
if I ever go to Berlin I will have to try and get to
see it myself if it is still there!

love

Freya
