Aragon Media enlists for 'Emden Men'


May 18, 2007 Aragon Media International, the Gibraltar-based film financing group headed by Pino Curcio, is backing the World War I drama "Emden Men," a €20 million ($27 million) production based on the true story of a group of German soldiers who struggled to get from China to Berlin in 1914. The film's title comes from the German battleship SMS Emden, which was sunk by allied forces in the South China Sea in 1914 at the beginning of WWI -- only 32 of the ship's crew survived. Berengar Pfahl, the German director who shot AMi's first feature film, "Shanghai Baby," will also helm "Emden Men."
