Tribute of Panem director Francis Lawrence raves about Berlin as a location
According to a report from Tagesspiegel, the director of the "Tribute of Panem" series, Francis Lawrence, explained in a press conference before the film's premiere "The Hungery of Panem - The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes" that he loves to shoot in Berlin. He describes Berlin as a fantastic city in which he could find the required locations. A large part of the film was shot in Germany, but also in Cologne and Duisburg. The new film plays 64 years before the events of the previous films and is based on the novel "The Tribute of Panem X - The Song of Vogel and Snake" by Suzanne Collins. The film will start in German cinemas on November 16.
Away from the article, one can say that Berlin is a popular city for film work, both for national and international productions. The city offers a variety of interesting and versatile locations that are often used as a backdrop for films. The German film industry has also become more important in recent years and offers a wide range of talented actors and filmmakers. By filming in Berlin, local companies and service providers can benefit from film production by creating jobs and income. Film production thus contributes to the economic development and cultural diversity of the city.
