MHz Choice Adds New Finnish, French, German Titles

The MHz Choice streaming service has added to its April lineup the Finnish thriller Man in Room 301, starring Jussi Vatanen (Tuntematon sotilas), among other titles.

Man in Room 301 centers on the Kurtti family, whose lives are torn apart by the death of their toddler son and their subsequent search for the killer.

Also coming in April, the French fantasy-thriller Wonderland stars Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace, Oblivion) as Alice, a mysterious woman in 1960s Biarritz with secrets clouding her past and present. Pierre Deladonchamps (Spiral, Nicolas Le Floch) plays young idealist Jérémy, whom writer-director Hervé Hadmar describes as “a man who travels through time for love.” The more Jérémy learns about Alice, the more surprising twists this gripping series takes. Underlying the heady mix of intrigue, passion and tension is a gorgeous score by composer Éric Demarsan.

Coming April 20, the German drama The Typist stars Iris Berben (Eddie the Eagle) as Freya, a police secretary. Freya has spent her life transcribing gruesome accounts of murder and is haunted by the disappearance of her own daughter eleven years prior. When an old friend played by Peter Kurth (Babylon Berlin) takes over the Berlin Police Department, she resolves to finally get to the bottom of her daughter’s disappearance and finds out more than she bargained for.

The Movie of the Week series continues with new weekly TV movies from France: Storm Warning, starring Blandine Bellavoir (Agatha Christie’s Criminal Games) and Antoine Dulery (Perfect Murders), and Valparaiso, with Thierry Godard (Spiral, A French Village).
