Beta Mipcom 2014 New Line-Up MINISERIES - SERIES - tv movies - feature films - KIDS BETA MIPCOM 2014 NEW LINE-UP www.betafilm.com Visit our Screening Room! SERIES Can justice be truly blind? Based on the bestseller by Ferdinand von Schirach In the final analysis, it all comes down to guilt. Different shades of guilt that one assumes in a single moment of thoughtlessness, or in months of planning. Defense Attorney Friedrich Kronberg knows that he must try to tip the scale in favor of the defendant, no matter how guilty the defendant is. He probes a model young couple accused of having committed a murder 19 years earlier and who would rather die than go to jail... boarding-school teens whose hazing of a fellow student nearly turns fatal... a group of men who savagely raped a young woman yet must be let off free.. a man who tells his wife that he is going to sexually abuse their daughter and is then found dead... Crimes that are never what they seem to be and are never black and white. A haunting sense of timelessness interwoven with an undercurrent of menace - with his new type of bestselling legal thrillers, author Ferdinand von Schirach has established a subgenre that was predestined for a groundbreaking new series. Lending emotional depth to the TV adaptation is Moritz Bleibtreu (RUN LOLA RUN, THE EXPERIMENT, MUNICH, SOUL KITCHEN) as Friedrich Kronberg. In storylines that shift iridescently between various eras, the camera unfolds an artistry and impact rarely obtained on television. But then again, fighting for the rights of criminals is also rarely found on TV. Justice may be blind – but guilt is never deaf. Title Shades of Guilt Genre Crime Category Series Format 6 x one hour, HD Starring Moritz Bleibtreu (RUN LOLA RUN, MUNICH) Directed by Hannu Salonen Maris Pfeiffer Produced by MOOVIE - the art of entertainment presents a Oliver Berben production for ZDF http://www.betafilm.com/shadesofguilt DE SERIES In an age when life hangs between two swords Set in 1623, two years before Alexandre Dumas‘ Three Musketeers, and based on the best- selling novels by Arturo Perez Reverte (“The Nine Gates”), we relive the historically true- to-fact “Spanish Match” through the eyes of master swordsman and street-wise soldier of fortune Diego Alatriste, nicknamed “the Captain”. After years of futile negotiations, Charles, Prince of Wales and his trusted counsel, the Duke of Buckingham, travel incognito to Madrid to enforce the prince‘s wedding with the Spanish infanta, María Ana of Austria, sister to King Philip IV. A “match” opposed by seemingly insurmountable forces: the holy inquisition and the Grand Inquisitor himself, Emilio Bocanegra, as well as Cardinal Richelieu, infamous counselor to King Louis XIII of France. Propelled by the sheer lust for power in the guise of religious righteousness, no intrigue is ruthless, no bloodshed vile enough to prevent the planned alliance of these two super-powers of the times, Spain and England. But destiny is decided not only in the palaces, but in the dirty, low-down streets of Madrid - the home of Diego Alatriste and his 14-year-old apprentice Iñigo de Balboa. Thrust against his will into this filthy web of conspiracies, romance and treason, Diego, nicknamed the Captain, has his hands full not only as a bodyguard-of-sorts and sword-for- hire to the English prince, but as a man between two women, one scheming but whom he holds a secret passion for, one caring but whom he takes for granted. On top of which Diego must learn how to be a substitute father to young but brave Iñigo who refuses to budge from his side until the Captain has taught him his craft and, ultimately, to be a man.

Vowing to become a physician and vanquish Death itself, he travels to Isfahan in Persia to study medicine under the great Ibn Sina.

Bolder. It‘s the next step in the logical evolution of a successful franchise: „Rex Special Unit,“ a new generation of „Rex“ with a cool new look, modern, youthful aesthetic, more drive and action, and a darker mood. Interspersed with quick cuts and agile camera work, „Rex Special Unit“ whips its storylines along with a beat that makes the series rock. Whether chasing crooks, locating corpses or searching for victims in need of help, Rex faces ever greater challenges, which he takes on in perfect harmony with his human partner, brawny detective Marco Terzani. Marco, who previously spent several years in a narcotics squad in South America, is accustomed to a very physical style of crime-fighting that often includes undercover work. His relaxed style is ideal not only for interrogations, but also for toning down the pressure at Homicide. Yet time is of the essence, and Marco knows he can rely on an exceptionally gifted – albeit slightly eccentric – team of experts. The team‘s favorite, however, remains the one who‘s short on words but big on action: Rex! 12 hours now available - next season in production Title Rex - Special Unit Genre Crime Category Series Format 12 x one hour + 12 new episodes in production, HD Starring Francesco Arca Domenico Fortunato Francesca Cuttica Alessia Barela Massimo Reale Directed by Marco Manetti Antonio Manetti Produced by Beta Film and Dog‘s Life for RAI http://www.betafilm.com/rexspecialunit IT SERIES Each letter a life.

Their job is to deliver the “undeliverables,” letters and packages that have been impossible to deliver – until now! Head of the postal detectives is prim and proper Oliver, whose partner Shane complements his old-school letter hunting with her technological skills. Indeed, the perky, techno-savvy young woman is like a breath of fresh air that invigorates not only Oliver, but also the team‘s two other postal Sherlocks Rita and Norman. Together, the four venture out of their basement office and set out into an unpredictable world where letters from the past save lives, solve crimes, reunite old loves and change futures. They may arrive late, but they‘re always miraculously on time.

  • Press Release a Tribute To... Award to German Director Tom Tykwer One
    Press Release A Tribute to... Award to German Director Tom Tykwer One of Europe’s Most Versatile Directors August 24, 2012 This year’s A Tribute to... award goes to author, director and producer Tom Tykwer. This is the first time that a German filmmaker has ever received one of the Zurich Film Festival’s honorary awards. Tykwer will collect his award in person during the Award Night at the Zurich Opera House. The ZFF will screen his most important films in a retrospective held at the Filmpodium. The ZFF is delighted that one of Europe’s most versatile directors is coming to Zurich. “Tom Tykwer has ensured that German film has once more gained in renown, significance and innovation, both on a national and international level,” said the festival management. Born 1965 in Wuppertal, Tom Tykwer shot his first feature DEADLY MARIA in 1993. He founded the X Filme Creative Pool in 1994 together with Stefan Arndt and the directors Wolfgang Becker and Dani Levy. It is currently one of Germany’s most successful production and distribution companies. RUN LOLA RUN Tykwer’s second cinema feature WINTER SLEEPERS (1997) was screened in competition at the Locarno Film Festival. RUN LOLA RUN followed in 1998, with Franka Potente and Moritz Bleibtreu finding themselves as the protagonists in a huge international success. The film won numerous awards, including the Deutscher Filmpreis in Gold for best directing. Next came THE PRINCESS AND THE WARRIOR (2000), also with Frank Potente, followed by Tykwer’s fist English language production HEAVEN (2002), which is based on a screenplay by the Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski and stars Cate Blanchett and Giovanni Ribisi.

Despite the challenges we and the industry are facing, we are optimistic about 2021. This is because we love cinema and good films and series – and particularly in these difficult times, they are also some­ thing that is needed by audiences around the world. Time and again in recent years, German feature films and series have succeeded in captivating viewers abroad, and we are confident that this will be the case in 2021 as well. In particular, the new wave of German documentaries is establishing itself increasingly as a favourite with international audiences. We are just as proud of the German Films campaign FACE TO FACE, which has been in existence for six years now, and delighted that we will be able to continue it with a great new pool of talent in 2021 – despite the difficult current conditions. Films and series are created through the work of a large team, which is why we have decided to highlight a greater diversity of film professions in 2021 and are proudly presenting the premiere of our new faces in this issue of GFQ. German Films Quarterly will broaden its format in 2021: We will also open our publication to contri­ butions dealing with internationally controversial topics in the film industry.

It explores developments in recent German filmmaking in the context of the increasing globalisation of media industries and images and in the context of contemporary cinema’s relationship to other media forms. Stu- dents will explore the dynamics of recent German cinema, including its successes at major award ceremonies and at film festivals, its relationship to Hollywood and to other international cinemas, its distinct approach to questions of the audience, of auteurism and of production, and to transnational images, particularly con- cerning the emergence of Turkish-German filmmaking. Students will also address the representation of politics, terrorism, history, heritage and the national past, the engagement with issues of performance, gender and sexuality, the use of genre and popular commercial film styles, and the re-emergence of a ‘counter cinema’ in the work of the ‘Berlin School’ and after. Seminar work on current trends will allow students to work independently to research an individual case study of a chosen film and its significance to contemporary German cinema.

A DANGEROUS METHOD (2011) Director: David Cronenberg Writers: Christopher Hampton, Christopher Hampton Stars: Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen Country: UK | GE | Canada | CH Genres: Biography | Drama | Romance | Thriller Trailer In the early twentieth century, Zurich-based Carl Jung is a follower in the new theories of psychoanalysis of Vienna-based Sigmund Freud, who states that all psychological problems are rooted in sex. Jung uses those theories for the first time as part of his treatment of Sabina Spielrein, a young Russian woman bro- ught to his care. She is obviously troubled despite her assertions that she is not crazy. Jung is able to uncover the reasons for Sa- bina’s psychological problems, she who is an aspiring physician herself. In this latter role, Jung employs her to work in his own research, which often includes him and his wife Emma as test subjects. Jung is eventually able to meet Freud himself, they, ba- sed on their enthusiasm, who develop a friendship driven by the- ir lengthy philosophical discussions on psychoanalysis. Actions by Jung based on his discussions with another patient, a fellow psychoanalyst named Otto Gross, lead to fundamental chan- ges in Jung’s relationships with Freud, Sabina and Emma.
