The terrorist thriller eerily anticipated the Berlin Christmas Market attack in December.

Independent distributor NFP, fresh off the success of Oscar nominee Toni Erdmann , has picked up German thriller Berlin Falling , the directorial debut of actor Ken Duken, for Germany. The film, which Duken shot last year, follows a terrorist who hijacks a car and forces the driver to take him to Berlin where, in the middle of Christmas celebrations, he plans to carry out a brutal attack.
