On Monday, April 22nd of 2019, the shooting of our new film PLATZSPITZBABY has begun. The film is inspired by the Swiss bestseller novel PLATZSPITZBABY by Michelle Halbheer and Franziska K. Müller, published in 2013 by Wörterseh-Veralg, which touched the hearts of over 40'000 Swiss readers.
Sarah Spale, best known for the leading role in the successful SRF-Series WILDER and her appearance in NIGHTTRAIN TO LISBON, is taking on the challenging role of a drug addicted mother. The leading role of her 12yo daughter Mia is played by newcomer Luna Mwezi. She flees from her cruel everyday life into her own dreamworld and finds fun, hope and joy thanks to her imaginary friend Buddy. The film is directed by Pierre Monnard and written by André Küttel. The film opens in Swiss cinemas on January 16th of 2020.

ZWINGLI Still #1 in Swiss German Cinemas!
We are very proud to inform you that ZWINGLI is still on top of the charts after its second weekend on the big screen. After a fabulous opening weekend of 28'279 viewers it could increase numbers by 14% this week, making it a fantastic 32'162 spectators. Therefore ZWINGLI managed to defend its #1 spot in Swiss german theaters against strong newcomers such as CREED II or THE FAVOURITE.
