Picture Tree Intl. has added German romantic comedy “Cold Feet” (Kalte Füsse) to its market lineup at the Berlin Film Festival, where the sales agent will screen the film as a market premiere. Sony Pictures released the pic, directed Wolfgang Groos, in Germany on Thursday, and it garnered 100,000 admissions over its opening weekend.
“Cold Feet,” set in a snow-covered landscape, tells the story of petty criminal Denis, who breaks into the winter cottage of rich business man and stroke patient Raimund.

Then a snowstorm hits and a game of cat and mouse ensues in the snowbound house.
Denis is played by Emilio Sakraya, who previously appeared in “Heilstätten” and the “Bibi & Tina” movie franchise; Raimund is played by Heiner Lauterbach, whose credits include...

Exclusive: German actor David Kross, who appeared opposite Kate Winslet in Stephen Daldry’s Oscar-winning The Reader, has been cast as the legendary German-born goalkeeper Bernd ‘Bert’ Trautmann who was in goal for Manchester City from 1949 to 1964.
Trautmann will be Bavarian director Marcus ‘Rosi’ Rosenmüller’s first English-language feature film and will be produced by Munich-based Lieblingsfilm with UK producer Alex Boden’s Pistachio Pictures.
Principal photography is set to begin this autumn, with most of the shoot concentrated in Germany and some location work in Northern England. In addition, extensive visual effects will be deployed to recreate the period atmosphere of post-war England.
“The action on the football pitch will provide the backdrop for the story of the former German Pow Trautmann falling in love with his coach’s daughter Margaret,” producer Robert Marciniak told Screen. “This is a love that shouldn’t have been so soon after the end of Second World War.”
