“We have a broad, diverse mix of comedies to the blockbuster ‘Hinterland’,” festival director Sophoan Sorn told dpa. It opens with Daniel Brühl’s “Next Door”. Main actor Peter Kurth (“Babylon Berlin”) will come to the US west coast for this.
Other films in the programme: “Ivie wie Ivie”, about two German half-sisters with an African father, and “Ein nasser Hund” about a young Iranian in Berlin who hides his Jewish roots when he joins a group of Muslim teenagers. Leading actor Doguhan Kabadayi, born in Berlin in 2001, is also expected as a guest in San Francisco.
