Date:
Issue 39 - June 1995 |
One year after its
world-premiere at the Munich Film Festival, the German 70mm short film
"Tour Eiffel" has been selected for 9 festivals all over the world. The
10 minutes running comedy has won 3 awards at major competitions. The
highlight was the presentation as the official closing-film of the
prestigious Venice Film Festival at the theatre "Scala Grande" in September
1994. An audience of 2000 international film celebrities saw
"Tour
Eiffel" on a 180 square metres screen and clapped for over 2 minutes.
But unfortunately only few of the other festivals were able to run the film
in the original format. Therefore two 35mm reduction prints have been made,
which have an amazing quality, but do not compete with the 70mm prints.
26 years old producer and director Veit Helmer plans to release
"Tour
Eiffel" in 12 European cities next autumn. He is looking for the most
beautiful theatres over the continent, who are interested to show an
original 70mm short film before a long feature film.
"I am not interested to make big money. I want my film to be shown on
screens. I need help from members of The International 70mm Association who
contact theatres and make promotion for this particular event". It is
planned to be a European-wide release in the same week. Six theatres in six
capital cities should run a 70mm print for four weeks. Then the print should
be shown at another six screens for a period of four weeks at the second
largest town in each country".
Veit Helmer will provide those members, who are interested to work as a
distributor in their country with one 70mm print, 100 posters and 100 colour
stills. The small money, earned from the theatres would be shared between
producer and distributor. Members who are interested to help Veit Helmer can
contact him by mail at the following address:
