content
The two criminal investigators Schröder and Yobo are transferred to the area at Munich Central Station. Café Europa becomes the headquarters of the undercover agents. Since Schröder believes that his wife Nana is cheating on him, he lets two private detectives watch her.
The Greek landlord of their local pub is blackmailed by the mafia, but refuses to pay protection money. A killer arrives from Italy who is supposed to kill Mikis and blow up the bar. By chance, the private detectives photograph Schröder's wife together with the mafia killer.
The mix-ups take their course, the police duo arrests passers-by and police officers. And Nana is actually having a relationship with a colleague of her husband.
criticism
