Berlin Film Festival Unveils Full Lineup: ‘La Cocina’ Starring Rooney Mara, ‘Another End’ With Gael García Bernal Among Competition Titles
Berlin Film Festival is unveiling its lineup for the 2024 edition.
In “Small Things,” which is set in the 1980s, Murphy plays a devoted father and coal merchant who discovers shocking truths about Ireland’s horrific Magdalene laundries, the asylums for young “fallen” women run by Roman Catholic institutions from the 1820s until 1996. Previously announced special galas include Netflix’s “Spaceman” starring Adam Sandler and Carey Mulligan; Stephen Fry and Lena Dunham’s father-daughter film “Treasure”; “Cuckoo,” a horror film starring “Euphoria” breakout Hunter Schafer; Italian TV series “Dostoevskij” by twin directors Damiano and Fabio D’Innocenzo; “Sasquatch Sunset” with Riley Keough and Jesse Eisenberg; Amanda Seyfried vehicle “Seven Veils”; and Tsai Ming-liang’s documentary “Wu Suo Zhu” (“Abiding Nowhere”). “Lupita Nyong’o embodies what we like in cinema: versatility in embracing different projects, addressing different audiences, and consistency to one idea that is quite recognisable in her characters, as diverse as they may look,” Berlinale directors Mariëtte Rissenbeek and Carlo Chatrian said in a statement.
