FACE TO FACE WITH GERMAN FILMS PRESENTS ITS NEXT SIX ‘FACES’

FACE TO FACE WITH GERMAN FILMS, which launched last year at the London Film Festival, will be taken forward in its 2nd year with the support of six of Germany’s most exciting male actors: Volker Bruch, Alexander Fehling, Louis Hofmann, Jannis Niewöhner, Tom Schilling and Ronald Zehrfeld. The six acclaimed German actors, who together demonstrate the diverse range of German cinema styles and stories, will be positioned as ambassadors for the promotion of German films outside of their home country.

German Films’ Managing Director Mariette Rissenbeek said of the announcement, “A new generation of German filmmakers is spreading its wings, either on the big screen or in the digital world. FACE TO FACE WITH GERMAN FILMS gives us the unique opportunity to visualize this trend and to put a spotlight on the faces either behind or in front of the camera. Through FACE TO FACE WITH GERMAN FILMS the audience will discover these talents and find access to the latest German films.”
