Wim Wenders brings 3D storytelling to new film being shot in Montreal

MONTREAL – German director Wim Wenders will start shooting his new movie, “Everything Will Be Fine,” in Montreal on Tuesday.

He says shooting the feature film in 3D will give it a whole new emotional perspective.

Wenders described the new film as an intimate look at a man seeing the world in a different way after suffering a traumatic shock and coming to grips with things he can’t change.

“We are entering new narrative territory with this project,” Wenders said in a statement Monday. “I am convinced that the medium of 3D will be able to open up an entirely new dimension of emotional closeness to our story and its protagonists.”

“Everything Will Be Fine” stars James Franco (“Oz the Great and Powerful”), Charlotte Gainsbourg, who appeared in the Bob Dylan biopic “I’m Not There,” and Marie-Josee Croze, who starred in “The Barbarian Invasions.”

“Pina,” Wenders’ last movie done in this format, received an Oscar nomination for best documentary feature in 2012. It did not win.

“Everything Will Be Fine” will be released in 2014.
