International sales company Be For Films has acquired "The Loneliest Man in Town," directed by Tizza Covi and Rainer Frimmel. The film will have its world premiere in competition at the Berlinale.
Set in Vienna, the movie follows blues musician Al Cook as his home is targeted for demolition. This forces him to confront dispossession, both material and emotional, in a story exploring memory, grief, and resistance.
The film stars non-professional actors and was shot on Super 16mm, consistent with the directors' signature style. "The Loneliest Man in Town" reunites Be For Films with Covi and Frimmel after their previous collaborations.
