FLOW

The historic church in the heart of Kreuzberg is regarded as a striking venue at the intersection of tradition, urban life, and cultural openness. For decades, this imposing sacred building—with its high vaults, massive stone, exceptional spatial depth, and impressive acoustics—has created a space with a special atmosphere.

It is precisely this venue that now serves as the stage for FLOW—a work that elevates audiovisual poetry to a new dimension.

FLOW – when music becomes light and space

In the Passionskirche, the historic vaults transform into a room-filling 360-degree work of art made of light, sound, and movement. FLOW is entirely dedicated to Bedřich Smetana’s world-famous composition “The Moldau”—but in a form never before experienced. The work has been newly arranged, recorded with the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, expanded with modern electronic elements, and produced exclusively for this immersive experience. The result is an extraordinary fusion of classical musical tradition, contemporary sound design, and monumental visual art. The music unfolds the river’s journey—from its source through rapids, landscapes, and cities to its mouth. Every phase of the composition is brought to life visually, spatially, and emotionally in Berlin.

The Vltava flows through Berlin

In FLOW, the Vltava River flows through the entire church space as a living stream. Light flows over walls, arches, columns, and ceilings. Water structures, colors, and movements interweave with sound to create an immersive overall experience in which space and perception dissolve. Visitors stand in the midst of a stream of light, music, and movement—and experience how the boundaries between architecture, emotion, and sound open up in a unique way.

Water as a Symbol of Life

Water is origin and memory. An element that shapes the world just as much as it shapes us. It bears the traces of time, moves ceaselessly forward, and yet always remains true to itself. In its flow, water reveals an ancient law: Everything changes—and only what moves remains alive. FLOW takes up this symbolism and makes it spatially tangible. The Journey of the Vltava tells of beginnings, transitions, loss, strength, and renewal. Many visitors will

The Passionskirche as Berlin’s Resonance Chamber

This dimension is particularly palpable in spaces like the Passionskirche. The ancient stone, the height of the nave, the echo of the vaults, and the play of light create a place where interior and exterior merge. In the heart of vibrant Kreuzberg, FLOW creates a counterpoint to the city: a place of tranquility, beauty, and concentration. Especially during the Berlin summer, the pleasantly cool church also becomes a special retreat with cultural depth.

Berlin as a New International Venue

With FLOW, Projektil opens a new chapter in its international success story and demonstrates for the first time how powerfully the Passionskirche can be used as an artistic resonance space. Berlin thus joins a series of international cultural metropolises where immersive formats are setting new standards. The capital once again proves its openness to innovative forms of expression at the intersection of art, technology, and emotion.

Special FLOW Live Concerts in Berlin

In addition to the regular FLOW Cinematic Shows—the pre-produced immersive main production centered on Bedřich Smetana’s “The Moldau”—special FLOW live concerts are being created in Berlin. The live formats draw on the movement, dramaturgy, and emotional depth of the work and translate these into different musical genres—performed live and each staged independently.
