Schroeder's "Man," which screens in Berlin's Generation 14plus section, has all the makings of an indie sleeper hit. Christopher Plummer is already generating strong Internet buzz for his performance as a geriatric Hollywood gaffer who gets one last chance to work on a movie set when a teenage film buff asks him for help.
Variety 2/15/07 
There are all sorts of fun discoveries hidden in the nooks and crannies of the Berlinale. After all, there are more than 1,000 pics being screened -- 373 in the official competitive sections, and the rest in the adjoining European Film Market.One that went over well in the Generations 14+ section, (whatever that means), was "
Man in the Chair," directed by American
Michael Schroeder. He said that at some point he decided he'd had enough of making horror movies, and wanted to deal with more relevant themes. This one is about how we treat the elderly in America and it stars
Christopher Plummer. A few folks had tears in their eyes after the screening.(
