After directing four „Bibi & Tina“-movies, »ASPHALTGORILLAS« shows Detlev Buck’s dedication to a severe field study. The screenplay has been written together with Cüneyt Kaya and Constantin Lieb and is based on the short story of author Ferdinand von Schirach.
A STAR CAST FOR DETLEV BUCK
The movie doesn’t only have its star director, but also an illustrious range of players: with Samuel Schneider, who acted as the lead in Caroline Link’s „Exit Marrakech“ 2013, Jannis Niewöhner, being the most famous and most engaged emerging German actors (amongst others „Rubinrot“, „4 Könige“ und „Ostwind – Aufbruch nach Ora“), Ella Rumpf, whose attention arose 2017 after playing in coming-of-age-drama „Tiger Girl“, as well as in the horror-drama „Raw“ and with Kida Khodr, who is a well-known face of German TV and cinema productions for several years already and lately made new sensation by playing in the „4 Blocks“ drama series.
They’re joined by model Stefanie Giesinger, rapper SSIO and poetry-slammer/singer Julia Engelmann.
