It's getting bloody on Hamburg's neighbourhood: filming is currently underway forThe golden glovewhich has Hamburg's master director Fatih Akin in the director's chair. After Akin's film at the beginning of the year Into the fate has already won numerous awards - including the Golden Globe - he has dedicated himself to a dark chapter in Hamburg's criminal history with Heinz Strunk's novel: Fritz Honka, the murderer of women, met his victims in the mid-1970s in the neighbourhood pub "Zum Goldenen Handschuh", which is still located on Hamburger Berg today. Honka is played by 22-year-old up-and-coming star Jonas Dassler, who last appeared in Lars Kraume'sThe silent classroom was convincing. Akin will then turn his attention directly to another novel, Stephen King's "Fire Child". It is not yet clear when filming on the horror classic will begin - but we are already more than excited about Akin's first US production.
