A film by Sabine Hiebler and Gerhard Ertl

After the novel by Cornelia Travnicek

CHUCKS, the new film by Sabine Hiebler and Gerhard Ertl (“Coming of Age / Anfang 80” – Public Award – Most Popular Film in Montreal 2012)), tells the featherlight story of Mae’s growing up between life and death. Full of humor, at times rebelliously loud, then extremely tender – completely in the spirit of the literary version it is based on, the successful novel by Cornelia Travnicek about which Clemens J. Setz once wrote: “If I were to get stuck in a lift with a character of contemporary literature, I would want it to be Mae. I don’t know whether I would come out safe and sound, but it would be worth it
