COLOGNE, Germany -- French director Regis Wargnier's anthropological epic Man to Man, starring Joseph Fiennes and Kristin Scott Thomas, on Tuesday was named the opening film of the 55th Berlin International Film Festival, which runs Feb. 10-20. Man will have its world premiere Feb. 10 in Berlin and will run in competition at the festival, organizers said. Based on a best seller by William Boyd, who co-wrote the script with Wargnier, Man revolves around a group of 19th century anthropologists who head to South Africa in search of The Missing Link between man and apes. When the group encounters a tribe of pygmies, they capture some to send back to Scotland to be studied. The film also stars Iain Glen, Hugh Bonneville and Flora Montgomery. France's Wild Bunch is handling international sales. Man marks Wargnier's English-language debut. The French helmer won the foreign-language Oscar in 1992 for Indochine.
