In 2004, Berlin launches Holoceenn, a series of documentary projects starring a city on our planet. After Jerusalem and Iqaluit, here is Bonanza. Located in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, Bonanza was once a mining town of 6000 inhabitants boasting 36 saloons, 7 dance halls and an immense number of prostitutes for the miners. Today only 5 houses and 7 inhabitants remain. It is legally the smallest town in the United States. Bonanza's residents wish for a solitary life, but are instead met with gossip, accusations and fear. Five video screens and a huge model of the town are set up on stage. They set the scene for the documentary, little by little becoming a social thriller and an exceptional form of theater.
