Great success for 8 German Films in Nanjing
September 27, 2007
BEIJING, Sept. 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- From September
15 till 21 eight German films were presented in the Gongren
and Heping cinemas in Nanjing. The event was organised by
the Goethe Institut in cooperation with German Films and
the Nanjing cultural office.
The opening of the event took place on September 15th
with the film FRENCH FOR BEGINNERS. Leading actress Paula
Schramm and producer Christoph Menardi were part of the
German delegation. Paula Schramm was very excited to find
her photograph all over the press in Nanjing on the next
day. The audience was thrilled about the charming romantic
comedy and thus the opening event caused a large positive
buzz on German films. Consequently, ticket sales for the
screenings on the next days were overwhelming. The Chinese
audience is obviously ready to see films "made in
Germany."
The German delegation consisted also of Sebastian
Bieniek, director of THE GAMBLERS -- a film which had been
shown in competition at the Shanghai International Film
Festival in June. Sebastian Bieniek discussed with the
students of a Nanjing film school on the deeper meanings of
his film after the successful screening.
German Films representative Mariette Rissenbeek was one
of the three people giving an opening speech at the opening
event. Also present was the German consul Mr. Albrecht von
der Heyden and of course Goethe Institut representative
Michael Kahn-Ackermann.
Other films which have been successful at this film
event in Nanjing are: ACCORDING TO PLAN by Franziska von
Meletzky (also in competition at SIFF), EMMA'S BLISS by
Sven Taddicken, HEAVY WEIGHTS by Marcus Rosenmuller,
NOTHING ELSE MATTERS by Julia von Heinz, THE COUNTERFEITERS
by Stefan Ruzowitzky and YELLA by Christian Petzold.
