They will make a movie about the German cannibal

Six months after Cannibal Armin Maesy was put behind bars for killing and ate a man, a German director-Hamose-man with a female name Rosa von Praunheim, known for his scandalous films, is going to make a picture of him.

The film will be called "Your heart in my brains", shooting should be completed this year, today The Guardian writes (translation on the website of Inopressa ).

The film fund of the federal land North Rhine-Westphalia has already given its blessing to the director and even allocated a grant of 20 thousand euros.

“Of course, this is scandalous, but we believe that everything that von Praunhaim does should be supported,” said Erna Kififer, a representative of the fund yesterday.

The Mayvede was spoke all over the world in January, when the details of his crime became known. In March 2001, a 42-year-old engineer Mayvest at home in Rotenburg killed Yurgen Brandes, whom he met on the Internet. Over the next few months, he used parts of the body of his victim.

At the trial, Mayves said that the victim herself agreed to eat her.

Maeses was sentenced to eight and a half years for murder.

Director von Praunheim's plans have already come across criticism. Yesterday, deputy of the Land Tag of the Earth Hesse from the HDS party Axel Wintermeyer called the film "Pervert" and stated that his shooting was erecting a monument to the criminal-pervert.

The film about Cannibal also plans to shoot Hugh Grant

Already on the third day of the process in the German city of Kassel, the lawyer of Cannibal Harald Ermel announced: "We are already negotiating with film companies from around the world."

The London newspaper Daily Star announced the sensational proposal in February. The famous wife 43-year-old Hugh Grant is allegedly trying to get the rights to shoot the film. At the same time, a native of Britain is going to play the role of cannibal. The role of the victim, 43-year-old Bernd Brandes, should be fulfilled by Brad Pitt 40-year-old playboy, the German newspaper Bild.

One of Hugh Grant told the newspaper: “Hugh thinks that he can win an Oscar with this film. He no longer wants to play in romantic comedies. He wants to prove to the world that he is a great dramatic actor. The role of Cannibal will be a challenge and will prove his talent.”

Hugh Grant, who carefully monitored the process of Mayves, with black English humor says: "I want to penetrate the brain of this person. But not into his stomach."

Regarding his potential film win, Grant joked: "What person would refuse to eat Brad Pitt? Brad would be perfect for this role."

In the event that Brad Pitt refuses, then Grant is going to offer the role of the victim Matt Damon, Benjamin Brattu and Benisio del Toro.

The court sentenced the real cannibal to 8 years in prison

The trial in the case that shocked the world public - the 42 -year -old programmer from Rotenburg killed with his consent and ate Siemens engineer Bernd Jurgen Brandes, whom he met, having announced the Internet about the search for a well -fed victim for the Cannibal Train, - ended in Germany at the end of January.

The accusation required a lifelong imprisonment for the cannibal. The killer’s lawyer insisted that the crime was committed at the request of the victim, and therefore he should be regarded as “help of suicide”. In this case, according to the defender, Mayvez had to go to jail for no more than 5 years.

As a result, the court decided to reject the arguments of the defense, but at the same time to spare the cannibal and not to doom him to death in prison, and he determined him as a punishment for an “unintentional murder” of only 8.5 years of imprisonment.

As proven at the trial, Mayvez killed and cut into pieces of Brandes after sexual intercourse with a victim and several hours of sadomasochist bullying, including amputation of the penis, which was frozen with spices and sat down with a victim at the festive table. Cannibal insisted that everything that happened on March 10, 2001 was agreed with Brandes and was done at his request.

Meanwhile, psychiatrists found that the engineer suffered from a split personality and was not able to think rationally. As evidence, a film appeared on the process, on which everything was shot: from a meeting to the last agony of the unfortunate victim of Cannibal.

The arrest of cannibal forced society to pay attention to the problem and openly talk about the secret world of cannibalism and extreme fetishism. The court even said that cannibalism flourishes in Germany, but they do not want to notice this. According to Mayvez himself, there are about 700 of its like -minded people in the country.

The investigation found that Mayvest was in electronic correspondence from more than 200 people who shared his fantasies. At least, five themselves came to visit Cannibal, speaking of their desire to be eaten. He went to the end, for which he paid, only Brandes. Cannibal calmly let go home.

The programmer was accused of murder in order to sexual satisfaction and abuse of the bodies of the dead. He was charged with the cynical operation of the unstable state of the victim’s psyche to satisfy his criminal desires. German law does not distinguish German law into a separate crime, since its very existence is not allowed in a civilized society.

In his last word, the cannibal expressed regret about what happened and apologized, claiming that he was conducted by an obsessive idea that arose in early childhood when he dreamed of a friend or a younger brother who would never leave him. The eating of the flesh then began to seem to him the best solution to the problem of familiarization with the personality of another person. Psychologists testified that the eating of the 43-year-old Brandes really became for Mayvez "fulfilling the dream of a lifetime."

In the final appeal to the court on Monday, the accused said that he would like to write memoirs to convince other people with such fantasies to look for help from doctors before he was too late.
