Berlin, August 10, 2022 - On September 13th, the mystery series 1899 will celebrate its world premiere at the 47th Toronto International Film Festival (tiff). The first two episodes will be screened as part of the Primetimeprogramme, which features compelling television series from Canada and around the world. The premiere will be attended by showrunners Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar as well as actors Emily Beecham and Andreas Pietschmann.
Already in 2014 Friese and Odar premiered their movie Who Am I at tiff. Two years later in 2017 the creative duo celebrated the world premiere of the Netflix mystery series DARK, which became a worldwide hit and delighted critics and fans alike.
If you are interested in speaking to showrunners Jantje Friese and Baran bo Odar or actors Emily Beecham and Andreas Pietschmann whilst they are at tiff (face to face interviews or virtually), please send your inquiries before August 19th to publicityDACH@schroederschoembs.com.
The first look images provide a first glimpse of the must-see series of the year, featuring close-ups of Andreas Pietschmann (Eyk), Emily Beecham (Maura), Aneurin Barnard (Daniel) and Fflyn Edwards (Elliot), as well as an atmospheric ensemble image set against the backdrop of the ballroom at the heart of the ship.
1899 launches later this year exclusively on Netflix.
Press material is available in our Media Center and a link to the series on Netflix can be found HERE.
About 1899
The eight episodes follow the mysterious circumstances around the voyage of an immigrant ship from Europe to New York. The passengers, all of different backgrounds and nationalities, are united by their hopes and dreams for a new century and their future abroad. When they discover a second ship adrift on the open sea that had gone missing for months, their journey takes an unexpected turn. What they find on board will turn their passage to the promised land into a nightmare-like riddle, connecting each of the passenger's pasts through a web of secrets.
