Rebecca Miller’s She Came To Me has been chosen to open the 2023 Berlinale, the Berlin film festival set to kick off in mid-February. The US production will have its world premiere at the festival on opening night at the prestigious Palast in the centre of the city.
The romantic comedy by director and screenwriter Rebecca Miller boasts a cast of international stars that includes Peter Dinklage, Marisa Tomei, Joanna Kulig, Brian d’Arcy James, and Anne Hathaway.
The comedy is about love in all its forms and weaves together the tales of a charming cast of characters living in the romantic, bustling metropolis of New York City. Composer Steven Lauddem (Peter Dinklage) is creatively blocked and unable to finish the score for his big comeback opera. At the behest of his wife Patricia (Anne Hathaway), formerly his therapist, he sets out in search of inspiration. What he discovers is much more than he bargained for, or imagined.
Miller was last at the festival with Maggie’s Plan back in 2016 which was my first year covering. I will look forward to covering her latest work at the Berlinale next month.
She Came to Me will screen out of competition at the festival as a Berlinale Special Gala at the Berlinale Palast.
