February 03, 2009 Six years after his worldwide hit "Good Bye, Lenin!" German director Wolfgang Becker is returning to the big screen with an adaptation of "Me and Kaminski" from German best-selling author Daniel Kehlmann ("Measuring the World"). The novel follows the rivalry between the journalist Sebastian Zollner (Bruhl) and an art critic, who are both trying to write a biography of reclusive "blind painter" Manuel Kaminski. Becker contributed a short film, "KrankesHaus," to the omnibus production "Germany 09," which will premiere Feb. 13 at the Berlinale.
