MFG WITH TWO WORLD PREMIERES AT THE BERLINALE
The Zum Goldenen Lamm produced feature BACK FOR GOOD by Mia Spengler is opening the Perspektive Deutsches Kino section and the animation RABBIT SCHOOL – GUARDIANS OF THE GOLDEN EGG by Ute von Münchow-Pohl is competing in the Generation Kplus section of this year’s Berlinale.
Mia Spengler’s graduation film BACK FOR GOOD was shot in its entirety in Baden-Württemberg and tells a story from jungle camp to parent-teacher conference: after being released from rehabilitation, the ex-reality show star Angie has to move back in with her mother and take care of her pubescent sister. The feature was produced by Ludwigsburg-based Zum Goldenen Lamm together with pubcaster SWR and the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg with support from MFG.
The animation film RABBIT SCHOOL – GUARDIANS OF THE GOLDEN EGG by Ute von Münchow-Pohl is based on the children’s book classic of the same title: Max, a small-time big-city gangster rabbit, lands in rabbit school. With the help of the mysterious Hermine, he learns about the secret techniques of Easter bunnies, and a lot about himself, and surpasses himself in the fight against the foxes. Within the framework of its funding priority for animation and VFX, MFG supported the new Akkord Film feature with production funding.
