Dr. Faustus, living in divided Cold War Berlin, sells his soul to Mephistopheles. They seek thrills until, one last time, Faustus is brought back to the no man’s land of Berlin’s cold war Metro: A ghost station. Ghost stations were stops in East Berlin that trains (starting and ending in West Berlin) passed through without stopping.
