Rammstein - New Concert Film Getting Theatrical Release
Rammstein: Paris, a new concert-film by Jonas Åkerlund, will screen in selected cinemas across the world on the 23rd of March 2017! Screening dates for Germany, Austria, Switzerland are March 23rd, 24th and 29th, 2017. During the "Made in Germany" tour, Swedish director Jonas Åkerlund filmed two acclaimed Rammstein concerts in March 2012 - each for an audience of 17,000 at the Bercy Arena in Paris. In the resulting film (with 16 songs from the entire repertoire), Jonas Åkerlund takes a radically new approach to capturing the emotion and thrill of Rammstein's live performance.
Tickets are on sale at this location. Please note that further cities and cinemas will be continuously added.
Director Jonas Åkerlund offered: "We shot two nights in Paris, and we had 30 cameras, so that gives you 60 angles, plus we shot a dress rehearsal for close-ups. That gives you a massive amount of footage. This is a whole Rammstein-show, and I take the footage and cut it with the same precision that I would a 3-4 minute music video. Even with a big crew of editors, it took us over a year to nail down the edit. Looking at it now - that is the strength of this project. It really brings the show alive and shows what Rammstein is all about. I am very happy with Rammstein: Paris. What this film shows wasn't just relevant four years ago - it will always be relevant. Rammstein is a timeless work of art. And even if it might sound a bit pretentious, I'd like to say that I don't think that this level of precision will ever again be attained in a concert film. The film is unique."
Akerlund is known for directing music videos including Madonna's Ray of Light and Lady Gaga's Paparazzi, as well as concert films for Beyoncé, Jay Z and Taylor Swift.
