German-language productions on offer at the Cannes Film Market present an eclectic mix of adult drama, biting social commentary, history, comedy, kids’ pics and animation from such high-profile helmers as Stefan Ruzowitzky, Marcus H. Rosenmüller, Maria Schrader and Matti Geschonneck.
Rosenmüller and Santiago López Jover’s 1960s-set animated comedy “Snotty Boy” follows a kid whose unstoppable talent for drawing gives him an outlet for his discontent while growing up in a small conservative Austrian town where Nazi sympathy is still very prevalent. Sold by Picture Tree Intl., the pic was inspired by the life and work of late Austrian cartoonist and satirist Manfred Deix.
In Piotr J. Lewandowski’s “King of Ravens,” a young undocumented Macedonian immigrant begins a passionate love affair with a mysterious woman. The M-Appeal title stars Antje Traue and Malik Blumenthal. In the Playmaker’s “A Pure Place,” two young siblings try to free themselves from a secret community on a remote Greek island in Nikias Chryssos’ film. Also in the company’s lineup is Magdalena Lauritsch’s Austrian sci-fi drama “Rubikon.” On the family film front, Mike Marzuk revisits classic German Westerns in the Playmaker title “Young Winnetou and the Lost Buffalo,” about the early years of an Apache chief featured in Karl May’s books.
