The Critically-Acclaimed, Award-Winning Drama From Director Stefan Haupt

Available Digitally March 3 and on DVD March 31

SAN JOSE, Calif. (Jan. 26, 2015) — Switzerland's official entry for Foreign Language Film for the 72nd Golden Globes and the 87th Academy Awards®, Director Stefan Haupt's (Sagrada - The Mystery of Creation) critically-acclaimed, award-winning gay drama THE CIRCLE (DER KREIS) debuts across all digital platforms including iTunes and WolfeOnDemand beginning March 3, before making its debut on DVD March 31 from Wolfe Video. The film charts the life of gay couple Ernst Ostertag and Robi Rapp from when they meet in Zurich in 1958 to 2003 when they became the first same-sex couple to enjoy legal recognition in Switzerland. Haupt "seamlessly mixes engaging present-day interviews with the two, now octogenarians, with full-blooded dramatic reenactments, set in the 1950s and '60s, of Ostertag (portrayed by Matthias Hungerbuhler) and Rapp's (Sven Schelker) stirring tale of romance and oppression." (Los Angeles Times)
