HANNES

Shooting was completed last autumn at locations in Bavaria, Italy and Spain for Hans Steinbichler’s HANNES, an adaptation of Rita Falk's moving bestseller of the same name about friendship, loss and parting, adventure and love of life.

Leonard Scheicher and Johannes Nussbaum are cast as Moritz and Hannes, who have been inseparable friends ever since birth. However, life for the 19-year-olds is radically changed when Hannes is seriously injured on a trip out on their motorbikes and remains in a comatose state in the hospital. Moritz is nevertheless convinced that Hannes will come through and decides to now live life as his best friend would have done...
