22 Lanes: The Much-Awaited Cinematic Debut of Caroline Wahl's Bestselling Novel
Upcoming cinema release of novel adaptation '22 Metro Stations' set for September - Upcoming cinema release: "22 Trains" blockbuster hits theaters in September.
Wrangle yourself some popcorn ‘cause the big screen adaptation of Caroline Wahl's smash-hit debut novel, "22 Lanes," is set to hit German cinemas on September 4th. Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster, starring Luna Wedler, Laura Tonke, and Jannis Niewöhner, in this poignant tale of growing up and familial bonds.
In the midst of a million copies sold in the German-speaking region (boasting, thanks to Constantin Film), the novel is now getting the silver screen treatment. A tantalizing preview gives us a first glimpse into the cracked glass of the adaptation.
At the heart of the story is Tilda, expertly portrayed by Wedler, who juggles academics, a part-time gig at the grocery store, and caring for her younger sister Ida, all in the confines of a small town she longs to ditch.
Drunkenness, a destructive force in the lives of the sisters, clashes with the arrival of a mysterious young man. The narrative unfolds around Tilda's time spent at the swimming pool, her refuge where she swims an endless 22 lanes.
With production helmed by Mia Maariel Meyer ("Transatlantic"), this adaptation promises to be riveting, given her previous accomplishments. And with the writing fine-tuned by Elena Hell ("Sisi"), you can expect a compelling narrative that will keep you hooked.
