One year after Tickled and Wilderpeople stormed the Sundance Film Festival, another Kiwi film is preparing for a huge festival debut. One Thousand Ropes, a new film from director Tusi Tamasese, is set to premiere at the prestigious Panorama section of Berlin Film Festival. "It is a great honour to be selected in Panorama Special for the world premiere of our film, and thrilling to be returning to Berlin," Tamasese said in a statement. The Berlin Film Festival starts on February 9 in Berlin. One Thousand Ropes will air in the Panorama section alongside Sundance hits Berlin Syndrome and Call Me by Your Name.
