Fabian - Going to the Dogs

Berlin, 1931. Jakob Fabian works as an advertising copywriter for a cigarette company during the day. At night, he drifts through cabaret bars, brothels and artist studios with his wealthy leftist friend Labude. When he meets Cornelia, a self-confident aspiring actress, he allows himself to fall in love, but then he loses his job whilst Cornelia’s career blossoms thanks to a Studio mogul. Fabian finds this difficult to accept. But it is not just his world that is falling apart...

Dominik Graf adapts to the screen the book by Erich Kästner, a work that defines the tragic, hedonistic and dysfunctional era of the Weimar Republic.

Filmography: The Blue Room (2016), Beloved Sisters (2014), A Map of the Heart (2002).
