Polish director Agnieszka Holland is set to direct a new feature film based on the life of Marlene Dietrich titled “Berlinweh – Yearning for a Home.” Multiple outlets report that German writer Ingo Rasper is writing the screenplay. The film is described as a biographical project focusing on Dietrich. Production companies involved include Berlin-based X Filme Creative Pool and Czech-based Marlene Film Production, with British-Irish producer Mike Downey also participating. World sales for the project are handled by Films Boutique, according to one report. The announcement also places Holland’s upcoming work in context of her previous film career, noting her Oscar nomination for “Europa Europa” and her direction of other Oscar-nominated titles, including “In Darkness” and “Angry Harvest.” The sources do not provide an announced release date or casting details in the information shared. Overall, the reporting converges on the same creative lineup—Holland directing and Rasper writing—and on the attached production and sales partners for “Berlinweh – Yearning for a Home.”
