January 2020

Gregor Erler´s Debut- Featurefilm “THE LAST BERLINER” hat nach all den wunderbaren Festivalpreisen nun auch von der Filmbewertungsstelle FBW das Prädikat “Besonders Wertvoll” erhalten hat. Gerade für einen deutschen Genre-Film wahrlich keine Selbstverständlichkeit (FSK ab 16, sorry Kids 😉. Hier ein Auszug aus der Jury-Begründung:

“Der Film von Gregor Erler erzählt von einem Thema, das aktueller nicht sein kann: Gentrifizierung. Und damit vom Konflikt zwischen Gewinnmaximierung und dem Erhalt des Wohnplatzes für die dort Wohnenden. Wie ein Kammerspiel inszeniert Erler sein Ensemble, angeführt von Matthias Ziesing, der in der Rolle eines Mannes, der verzweifelt und entschlossen als „kleines Licht“ gegen „die da oben“ kämpft, mit seiner Intensität und Präsenz beeindruckt. Auch Pegah Ferydoni als Polizistin und Moritz Heidelbach als undurchsichtig glatter Makler überzeugen, ebenso wie Licht, Kamera und Set-Design. Das heruntergekommene Haus und die stickige, dreckige Wohnung werden zu weiteren Hauptfiguren in einem klug durchdachten Thriller, dessen Drehbuch geschickte Plot Points setzt, um die Zuschauer immer wieder in die Irre zu führen und neue Zweifel zu streuen. Ein extrem stimmungsvolles Sound-Design und ein treibender Score unterstützen die hohe Spannung bis zum Ende. “THE LAST BERLINER” ist mutiges und packend erzähltes deutsches Genre-Kino: Von hoher gesellschaftlicher Relevanz und filmischer Klasse.”Trailer: “THE LAST BERLINER” by Gregor Erler
