Nur Gott kann mich richten

29.09.2017 | German premiere in Hamburg

Chiko Director Özgür Yildirim is back: his new film "Nur Gott kann mich richten" with Moritz Bleibtreu celebrates its German premiere at Filmfest Hamburg on 7 October.

It tells the story of Ricky (Moritz Bleibtreu), who goes to prison for his brother Rafael (Edin Hasanovic) and mate Latif (Kida Khodr Ramadan) after a failed robbery. Latif wants to show his gratitude to Ricky for his time in prison and offers a seemingly safe last thing with the prospect of a lot of money. After some initial hesitation, Ricky agrees and also gets Rafael on board. Everything goes smoothly until policewoman Diana (Birgit Minichmayr) turns up and thwarts the boys' plans.

Filming took place in Hesse and Hamburg. Executive Producers are Christian Becker (Rat Pack Filmproduktion) and Moritz Bleibtreu, who also plays the lead role. Kida Khodr Ramadan, Edin Hasanovic, Birgit Minichmayr, Peter Simonischek, Franziska Wulf and Alexandra Maria Lara also appear in front of Matthias Bolliger's camera.

Nur Gott kann mich richten is a production of Rat Pack Filmproduktion and Paloma Film in co-production with Özgür Yildirim and Constantin Film Produktion, supported by HessenFilm und Medien GmbH, Filmförderung Hamburg-Schleswig-Holstein, the German Federal Film Board, the German Federal Film Fund and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media. Constantin Film will release Nur Gott kann mich richten in German cinemas on 25 January.

The German premiere in the presence of Director Özgür Yildirim and the leading actors will take place on 7 October 2017 at 22:00 at CinemaxX 1.
