Lila Lila Theatrical Release, May 23, 2014

Popular German actor Daniel Brühl plays David Kern, a socially awkward waiter who works a dead end job in a chic cafe. One day he stumbles upon the biggest break of his life, an unpublished manuscript, and thinking there might be something to it, claims it as his own in order to impress Marie, a pretty literature student who frequents the cafe. The manuscript turns out to be a lost masterpiece. Marie is quite taken with this stunning new writer, and is not content to let the hefty document go unpublished, much to David’s dismay.

Lila Lila opens May 23, 2014 at the Quad Cinema, 34 W 13th Street, Between 5th and 6th Aves, New York, 212-255-2243.
