Contact: jennifer@nmfilm.comFREE SCREENING OF GERMAN FILMMAKER MAXIMILIAN PLETTAU'S "COMEBACK"
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30 7:00PM JEAN COCTEAU THEATRE SANTA FE "Meet the Bavarian Film Scene in Santa Fe" with German filmmakers: Maximilian Plettau, Director/Producer Nominalfilm, Munich; Dr. Paula Ewert, Filmreferent, Bayerische Staatskanzlei, Munich; and Gabriele Pfennigsdorf, Deputy Managing Director, FilmFernsehFonds Bayern “Comback" follows Germany’s former light-heavyweight champ Juergen “the Rock” Hartenstein on a quixotic quest to re-enter the ring after three years off. There’s nary an ounce of fat in helmer Maximillian Plettaus’s stylistically unvarnished approach, though his impassive camera places him squarely in the Frederick Wiseman mold. Pic’s no-nonsense narrative arc renders it a refreshingly old-school acquisition for fests and cablers.” – Eddie Cockrell, Variety When: Tuesday, September 30 Time: 7:00 PM Where: NM Film Museum at the Jean Cocteau Theater 418 Montezuma Ave., Santa Fe For more info: contact jennifer@nmfilm.com or 476-5610
