Sommer in Orange (2011)

Ursula Gruber

Sommer in Orange, a German Culture-Clash-Comedy, is about a group of Berlin Sannyasins who moved to Bavaria in the early 1980s.

The author Ursula Gruber and her brother, the producer Georg Gruber, grew up in a Sannyas commune in Hohenschäftlarn south of Munich. The book is based on their childhood memories. It was the first screenplay for the documentary filmmaker and studied ethnologist. In 2008, she handed it to Marcus H. Rosenmüller, who immediately expressed his interest in the material. In the early 2000s, Rosemüller had shot a film in Pune and also visited the ashram at the time.

In the first month after being released in German cinemas, it climbed to place two of the Arthouse Cinema charts and within three months it reached over 500,000 viewers.
