Gotti turns Italo-Western: Crowdfunding for Brandenburg's film dream!

Brandenburg/Havel, Deutschland - Martin "Gotti" Gottschild, a versatile creative from Brandenburg/Havel, has made a name for itself as a joke and comedian in recent years. With the winning of the German Radio Prize 2021 in the "Best Comedy" category, he underlined his humor and diversity of talent. But Gotti has a lot more on the note! He is currently working on two film projects that could not be more different.

his first film, "tram - wash your hands again before dying", appeared in 2024 and is already a small hit. Gottschild, who not only directs, but is also active as a composer, humorously describes the film in an interview with Katia Berg and Sascha Schlegel from FluxfM. As part of this exchange, it is about the filigree art of film music and the exciting Romanian wood boarding performances, which he integrates in his works. Particularly noteworthy are the pieces by Sven van Thom.

a new film project in planning

Currently Gottschild has a second film in the pipeline: "The Party". This production is a tribute to the French Sunday film of the 70s and 80s and is announced under the motto "La Boum with 50-year-olds". The plot revolves around the original line -up, which leaves a tram and plays in Barnim. In addition, Gotti plans an exciting crowdfunding to finance the financing through party.tierestreichelnmenschen.de to secure. And not only in financial terms: Depending on the amount, donors are waving "blowns", agreements for annual subscriptions and even producer credits.

Italo-western in the coming

But that's not all! Gotti also plans to film a real Italo-Western in the Brandenburg landscape. An unusual but exciting production is planned, which he wants to shoot with an old tram wagon, the "Lindner 30". With a budget of only 60,000 euros, Gotti wants to create great film art, far from the usual 300,000 euros that cost many productions. Many will be able to support the crowdfunding, with various sponsorship levels: from 30 euros, fans can look forward to a signed book, while you can get a guest role in the film for 500 euros!

For the artistic direction, he and Christian Klandt are jointly at the wheel. The main character, which Gotti plays himself, brings the Berlin dialect into the desert - and without violence against women, whereas the story plays in a captivating time after the matriarchy and impresses with an exciting approach.

Overall, Martin Gottschild shows a good hand for unconventional film ideas with these projects and, with humor and creativity, ensures that the Cologne media horizon is richer. If you want to take the chance to look behind the scenes of these extraordinary films or even become part of the event, you have the opportunity with crowdfunding! Stay tuned, even if the next image of Gotti continues - we are excited!
