Based on the classic German novel Beware of Pity by Stefan Zwieg, who also inspired The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Kiss stars an award-winning international cast including Danish actors Clara Rosager, Esben Smed, and Lars Mikkelsen who starred in the most recent Star Wars installment Ahsoka.

The Kiss has garnered awards and accolades from critics and festivals around the world, including the Audience Awards at The Roberts Awards in Denmark, Grand Prix at the Warsaw International Festival, Best Director at the Barcelona Film Festival, and Official Selection at the Goteborg Film Festival in Sweden, European Film Festival in Lebanon, Film by the Sea International Film Festival, and Bari International Film Festival in Italy. Audiences applauded the film at U.S. festivals including Sun and Stars International Film Festival (Palm Beach, FL), Sedona International Film Festival (Sedona, AZ) and Cinema World Fest (Los Angeles, CA).

Set against the backdrop of 1913 Denmark at the start of World War I, The Kiss follows the journey of Anton, a noble cavalry officer, hoping to complete his military training with distinction. After helping the local Baron out of a tough situation one day with his automobile, he is invited to join him and his family for dinner at their palatial castle, where he meets the Baron’s beautiful wheelchair bound daughter, Edith. The two begin spending more and more time together as Edith slowly falls in love and Anton struggles with being able to discern if his feelings for her are genuine or merely out of pity, all while the ominous threat of the first World War looms over them.

“We’re honored to bring this memorable work by such a distinguished filmmaker to American audiences,” stated Paul D. Hancock, President/CEO of World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation.
