Company


Filmschaft Maas & Füllmich GmbH was founded in 2011 by Torben Maas and Christian Füllmich. That same year, they co-produced two films: the HFF graduation film DER KLASSENFEIND, a 30-minute East-West comedydirected by Martin Nudow in collaboration with Bayerischer Rundfunk, and Stanislav Güntner’s debut film NEMEZ, starring Emilia Schüle and Mark Filatov, co-produced with ZDF Das kleine Fernsehspiel.

In 2013, the producers were awarded the VGF Young Producer Award at the Bavarian Film Awards for their first feature film and received a three-year grant from the Bavarian Film Center to support their company’s growth.

In 2015, they shot the coming-of-age comedy EINMAL BITTE ALLES, directed by Helena Hufnagel, supported by FFF Bayern. The film premiered in 2017 in the competition at the Max Ophüls Film Festival and went on to win numerous international festival awards, including Best Feature at the Bushwick Film Festival in New York. In July 2017, the film was released in over 130 cinemas across Germany through self-distribution and attracted nearly 20,000 viewers despite a minimal marketing budget. In July 2018, the film premiered on German television as part of the Debüt im Ersten series.
