Product Description ------------------- It's been called the German BROKEBACK AIN for it's portrayal of forbidden love between two cadets previously heterosexual Marc (Max Reimelt, BEFORE THE FALL) and fellow male cop Kay (Hanno Koffler, SUMMER STORM). with a promising law career and a child on the way, Marcs life is all going according to plan until he meets the free spirited Kay. They start jogging together, bringing a breath of fresh air into Marcs life and, for the first time, he develops feelings for a man. Torn between the life he knows so well and the exhilaration of this new adventure, his life rapidly spins out of control. In this state of free fall, it seems Marc cannot make anyone happy anymore. Least of all himself. Free Fall is part of a new wave of powerful German cinema. As director Stephan Lacants first feature film, FREE FALL tells the dramatic tale of a man who finds himself outside the clear-cut boundaries of his world. Exceptional performances from Hanno Koffler, Max Riemelt and Katharina Schuttler provide a moving portrayal of what happens when life plans crumble and there is no way left to fulfill the needs of the people you love.
