Swiss distributor and producer Ascot Elite has sold German rights to its comedy remake The Neighbours From Upstairs (Die Nachbarn Von Oben) to Wild Bunch, which will release the film from June 1, 2023.
Ascot Elite has drawn 55,000 spectators to the film in German-speaking Switzerland where it is still on release and has become the most popular local production of the year to date.
Based on the Spanish hit from 2020, the film sees a couple who spend most of their time arguing decide to invite their upstairs neighbors for dinner despite their differences. As the night goes on, various secrets about the couple come to light.
