With one day to go before the official Berlin premier of the World Cup documentary film „Deutschland – ein Sommermärchen“ (Germany – a summer fairy tale), the excitement among the Werder representatives is distinct. Although Frings, Klose and Co. had already seen a rough cut of the movie, they have been curiously awaiting the official presentation. “I’m a little surprised as to how massive this premier has been made. There is everything from the red carpet to live television transmissions. It will be a bit like the World Cup itself”, remarked Tim Borowski on the general interest in the film. The Werder star will make the trip to Berlin for the opening along with his injured team mate Per Mertesacker. Further Green-White representatives will be the latest national team nominee Fritz Clemens and first choice internationals Torsten frings and Miroslav Klose.

 

Tim Borowski confirmed on Monday that a trip to the cinema would be well worth the effort: “The film is really well made. It offers a completely other perspective to the pictures that you will have seen on television during the whole World Cup period. There is a lot in there that I noticed again as I saw the movie for the first time.”

 

What is really special about the movie is the proximity of the camera to the people who were really at the heart of the event. The films maker Söhnke Wortmann, who spent time with the team during the Confederations Cup in 2005, really profited from the World Cup experience: “The film is really authentic. Söhnke Wortmann was a genuine part of the team throughout but you hardly even noticed hi there with the camera”, praised Miroslav Klose who also explained that the players also had the opportunity to influence the final cut of the film having seen the rough cut: “That was one of the reasons we were allowed to see the film. We could have had something cut out if we wanted to but as far as I know there was almost no player intervention.” The ‘Golden Boot’ winner wasn’t willing to reveal which scenes from the movie he was most looking forward to reliving: “We can’t really comment on that. We all agreed to remain tight lipped until the premier of the movie.”

 

Clemens Fritz is particularly excited about seeing the movie, as one of the few invited to the premier who were not involved during the tournament: “It’s a really nice start in the national team for me. I know most of the lads already and I personally enjoy going to the cinema. I think that will be fun.”
