has taken distribution rights in North America to Thomas Roth’s drama “Schaechten – A Retribution” in a deal with Berlin-based sales company Picture Tree Intl. PTI has debuted the film’s trailer, and will hold an invitation-only private screening of the film for buyers in Cannes.
Burkhard Ernst, CEO of the production company Cult Film, added: “Thomas Roth does an exceptional job of portraying the struggles of the post-war generation to obtain justice for Holocaust crimes, and we are very happy to have this film seen by North American audiences, and released by an experienced distribution company in this area.”
In a statement, Roth said: “Victor Dessauer is old enough to have experienced the horrors of the Nazi regime as a child and is still young enough to carry the anger of youth when we begin our story. I wanted to capture his awakening and confrontation with this Nazi past, which became characteristic for Victor’s generation and opened the door for a spirit of a wider rebellion that painfully changed society, while being inseparable from the present.
“Schaechten” is a Cult Film production in coproduction with Hallmann Entertainment Company, and was created with the support of the Austrian Film Institute , Filmfonds Wien, FISA – Filmstandort Austria, Land Niederösterreich and Land Salzburg, and in cooperation with ORF.
