NOTRUF HAFENKANTE goes Cannes! How great is that!

Gerit Kling and Lilli Hollunder and the Global Production Awards at the Cannes International Film Festival

Gerit Kling and Lilli Hollunder are both in the main cast of this popular Hamburg series and who would have thought that the St. Pauli Kiez would one day be part of an illustrious group of competitors like these: "Bridgerton" (Netflix), "Lockerbie - A Search for Truth" (Carnival Studios), "The Day of the Jackal" (Carnival Studios) and "Awesome Animals and Mini Me" (Three Arrows Media).
