The Ferryman and his wife have sold the farm, the land, the ferry boat and moved to the small city Parchim. On 8 October the film screened at the MovieStar Parchim Cinema. All the friends and neighbours of the ferryman couple were there to celebrate the old couple and their life time achievement – a work of 70 years. We are happy and sad at the same time.

Intimate Film Screening inside the Sackheimer Gate of the old city walls of Kaliningrad
NEXT STOP is KALININGRAD, RUSSIA
Screening on 2nd October, 12:25pm at the Art-Club VOROTA, part of the German-Russian Documentary Days
THE FERRYMAN AND HIS WIFE had a wonderful screening in Southeast Asia, in Yangon, Myanmar. And I was lucky enough to be able to attend the event at Wathann Film Fest#5 on 10 September 2015.
Just before the screening a black out hit the cinema because of a fire a few blocks down. The patient guests waited in the heat for 40 minutes until the film could start.
Thank you to the guests for coming, for being interested in a place so far away from their realities. Thanks for your curiosity and questions!
I would also like to thank the powerful Wathann Film Fest#5 Team and the Goethe-Institute Yangon!
