At Berlinale 2019?
Fatih Akin with THE GOLDEN GLOVE
A serial killer strikes fear in the hearts of the residents of Hamburg (Akin's beloved hometown) during the early 1970s. Screenplay and direction by Fatih Akin based on the real-crime novel by Heinz Strunk. Not Cannes fare like IN THE FADE, so hopefully locked for the Berlinale.
Starring Marc Hosemann (4 BLOCKS), Jonas Dassler (NEVER LOOK AWAY), Philipp Baltus (CHICO), and others.
