Story
From the producers of the multi-award winning AAYFF film "War Photographer", "The Clutches of the Curtain" documents the story of a successful East German film director, as he grows increasingly tired of the censorship and control of the Soviet Union. Because of this, he feels the only option left open to him is to escape East Berlin.

Stop Press: Congratulations to Patrick and his team for their win at the 2019 Across Asia Youth Film Festival in HCMC for Best Special Effects.
