Akin: You bring “Amrum” to Cannes

Fatih Akin (51) quickly moves the German North Sea island to the Côte d’Azur! Together with his main actors Diane Kruger (48), Matthias Schweighöfer (44) and Laura Tonke (51), the director presents his new work “Amrum” at the international film festival of Cannes as a world premiere. In the case of an adjacent photocall, Kruger can hardly be overlooked.

To a bright yellow dress that seems like a mixture of oversize jacket and kimono and shows a lot of leg, it combines a voluminous black loop around her waist. Black stilettos and her hair combed in a sly look round off your eye-catcher outfit.

Meanwhile, Schweighöfer relies on a completely black ensemble in a sloppy look. Only the white sneakers and the silver buttons on his shirt provide small color accents. In her dress, Laura Tonke relies fully on the color light blue, Akins also shouted wide -cut between gray and green.

The coming-of-age drama, which is based on the childhood memories of the director and screenwriter Hark Bohm (85) and played in 1945, celebrated its first performance in Cannes on Thursday evening. This Friday alone, it will be shown three times during the day. However, the strip does not have a view of the golden palm, “Amrum” runs out of competition. On October 9, the film is to be released into German cinemas.

The cast of “Amrum”, which also includes Detlev Buck (62) and Lisa Hagmeister (46), was also ceremonious over the red carpet from Cannes. On Thursday and before the “Amrum” world premiere, they visited the screening of “Dossier 137 (Case 137)” of the French filmmaker Dominik Moll (63) born in Germany.

The 78th edition of Cannes International Film Festival started on May 13th. Until May 24th, filmmakers from all over the world meet on the Côte d’Azur to present their latest works. 22 films compete for the main prize, the Palme d’Or.
