About Bollywood lässt Alpen glühen
The inhabitants of St. Maria curiously register the exotic film crew who want to shoot a Bollywood blockbuster in their home village. This is the brainchild of former local Franzi, now a production assistant in the city, who never wanted to return due to heartbreak: the ambitious Franzi has had enough of her home village and is pursuing a career in film in Vienna. When an idyllic and authentic backdrop is needed for a Bollywood movie, she quickly suggests her former home. The Indian crew is thrilled and invades the sleepy mountain village with huge catering buses, llamas and exotic dancers. Two cultures that couldn't be more different collide...
Directed by Holger Haase, Bollywood lässt Alpen glühen leans on a strong ensemble — Alexandra Neldel, Wolfram Berger, Thomas Heinze — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2011.
