Danish term or phrase: slår sprækker
This is from a Danish article about Berlin. The full sentence is

"Alting flytter sig, bevæger sig, slår sprækker, og alligevel er der masser af fristeder, hvor du kan finde ro."

Any suggestions are gratefully received.

Thank you!

´Everything heaves and lurches and splits apart, and yet there are still lots of places where you can take refuge and find peace.´
