Puh!!
Our first premiere in Munich last night turned out a great success!
It was a beautiful day from the morning with 30 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Maybe not the best weather for going to the movies but… 
Anyway, we didnt need to worry about this for long… After some interview sessions for tv and newspaper, the “tropic” thunderstorms set in bigtime! Right when all the people were arriving, the hail and rain came pouring down like tennis balls. We received phone calls from people who were on their way but got stuck on the highway, and with cars breaking down due to the hailstorm…
Extreme weather has never stopped us before, so the movie was on!
Jens and I introduced the movie for the almost 300 spectators who had made it in time, before we sat down to watch the film.
Through the entire duration of the film, 1 hour, it felt like my heart had gotten stuck in my throat and it was pounding so hard that I was afraid to disturb the others sitting next to me. I cant remember last time I have been this nervous…
When the movie ended and the text was rolling down the screen, the audience were still quiet like mice. I was almost wondering if they had all fallen asleep. When the last words faded out and the screen went black, the audience burst out in applause and definitely not sleeping at all. They cheered us on to the stage and we got to say a good thank you to everybody who has been involved!
Almost the whole crew who has been working with the film during these last 7 years were there and they all got a well deserved applause from the audience.
The hours that followed were filled with too much positive feedback and too many compliments that I am too shy to write about it…
All I can say is thank you to F24Film, Jens and Cleo, for continuing to believe in our story through all these years,
to everyone who has made this project possible,
and thank you for all the support and trust I have been given!
The tour will go on… next stop Paris!
Auf wieder seen!
