Berlin Calling Toronto! Dance Music gets screened Berlin style
Electronic Music Movie "Berlin Calling" to be screened exclusively at the Royal Cinema (608 College St. W - Little Italy) Sunday, September 7th at 7pm featuring German Dj/producer Paul Kalkbrenner
Toronto, August 24, 2008: This film festival season dance music will be featured in a film that brings the reality of life as an international touring artist to the screen. The subtitled German film "Berlin Calling" (105 minutes) directed by Hannes Stohr will be given a limited screening at the Royal Cinema (608 College St. W - Little Italy) Sunday, September 7th at 7pm in downtown Toronto. What's different about this film, is that the lead actor Paul Kalkbrenner is an actual producer and electronic music artist on one of Germany's renowned record labels, Bpitch Control (www.bpitchcontrol.com). Although the movie is a fictional piece, the life portrayed in the film is one that lead actor Paul has some experience with.
"We did the script together, for sure he (director Hannes Stöhr) has a big overview to create the story, which I cannot do, so I was more of a consultant of details. We were brainstorming for two years on the script, he developed the role a little in my direction, I also moved a little bit to this Ikarus guy because this stuff with sunglasses in the club I never did before. One day he said I trust you, and you will act this. Then I was like, 'hey should I read something about acting, or take some leasons' He was like 'No, you do as you do your music, you just are by yourself... You do just you'" - Paul Kalkbrenner - Locarno Film Festival Italy
The perfect venue, Toronto's Royal theatre has been selected for the screening of Berlin Calling. During the week, The Royal operates as the post-production facility for Theatre D Digital (http://www.theatred.com/) to mix surround sound audio in professional Dolby audio. As such the venue will be most suitable for Berlin Calling because it features a professionally mixed soundtrack in 5.1 surround sound produced almost entirely by Paul Kalkbrenner.
What makes this screening event really special is that Paul, who will be in attendance for Toronto's premiere of Berlin Calling, will also be DJing at an after-party at the Drake Hotel Underground. The event hosted by PLATFORM and Xanuradio.com will be going late featuring several local and international artists including Paul Kalkbrenner, Jamie Kidd, Greg Gow, Nitin and Felix & Gani. Further details with the screening times and event location to be released next week.
