Friday, February 3. 2017#Berlinale17: Open Wound German Film TV has carved out its place at most major international festivals and the Berlinale has been at the forefront of the new wave. This year, I can’t wait for Marvin Krens' 4 BLOCKS (German trailer), which takes us into the Berlin-Neukölln district of several Arab clans, starring VICTORIA’S Frederick Lau. If you liked DEUTSCHLAND '83, don't miss Oliver Hirschbiegel’s (DOWNFALL) East-West spy drama THE SAME SKY (trailer), where he pitches Tom Schilling (OH BOY) as a Stasi honey trap.

Dominik Graf directed, with his own personal signature and great sensitivity, the story of a moving love affair. The film convinces with the direction of the actors, the images suffused with light, and its very clever and unconventional composition.” BELOVED SISTERS tells the true but little known story of a ménage-à-trois between Friedrich Schiller and the von Lengefeld sisters, a utopia on the eve of the French Revolution. German actors Florian Stetter, Hannah Herzsprung (about to arrive in Toronto for TIFF14) and Henriette Confurius shine in the leading roles.
