According to their website, it seems that Iron Cross will be shown at the Boston Film Festival!
The Closing Night film is a special sneak preview of “Iron Cross,” a thriller starring the late Roy Scheider as Joseph, a retired New York police officer and Holocaust survivor, who travels to Nuremberg following the death of his wife to reconcile with his son Ronnie.
The reunion is quickly overshadowed by Joseph’s insistence that living in the apartment above, under a false name, is the now aging SS Commander (Helmut Berger) who murdered Joseph’s entire family during World War II.
Certain of the neighbor’s true identity, Joseph draws his reluctant son into a plan to exact justice and vengeance. With flashbacks to the past, revealing Young Joseph’s (Alexander Newton) narrow escape from the massacre and his teenage love for a heroic Polish girl, Kashka (Sarah Bolger), the story reaches a gripping and unforgettable climax.
An award for career achievement will be presented to Scheider’s wife, Brenda, at the screening, which will also be attended by castmember Alexander Newton, Joshua Newton, who produced, directed, and wrote the film, along with producer Kevin Farr.
