Still: Mr. K (credit: Kris Dewitte)

Mr. K, the second feature by writer/director of Tallulah H. Schwab, is selected for the upcoming edition of the Toronto International Film Festival. The film will world premiere in TIFF’s Platform competition.  

Starring Crispin Glover (Alice in Wonderland, Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, Back to the Future), Mr. K is a surrealist drama about a traveling magician, who finds himself in a Kafkaesque nightmare when he can’t find the exit of the hotel he slept in. His attempts to get out only pull him deeper inside, entangling him further with the hotel and its curious inhabitants.

Mr. K  is produced by Lemming Film (NL), The Film Kitchen (NL), A Private View (BE) and Take 1 Production (NO) and is supported by the Netherlands Film Fund and Netherlands Production Incentive. International sales are handled by Level K.

Tallulah’s debut feature Confetti Harvest* (2015), premiered at Berlinale’s Generation and screened at many children’s film festivals, including Kristiansand (Norway) and Zlin (Czech Republic).

Mr. K is financed with support from The Netherlands Film Fund, The Netherlands Film Production Incentive, CoBO Fund, AVRO/TROS, Creative Europe, LevelK, Eurimages, Screenflanders, Flanders Audiovisual Fund, Belgian Tax Shelter and Norsk Filminstitut.
