action
Isidor Blumentopf has finally married and wants to leave for her honeymoon with his bride. How can he suspect that he will encounter one obstacle after another in the following days? First there is a lavish wedding feast, then the couple set off on their honeymoon by train and end up in a hotel where Isidor hopes for nothing more than to be alone at last to be able to marry his loved one. But the limping hotel servant seems to have conspired against the newlyweds, because you are constantly disturbed when you are sleeping, because the hotel employee knocks on the room door with the greatest regularity, for example to hand over a telegram. Other participants in the chaotic developments are a salesman for cheese, a number of women from the village and finally even the state police, which significantly hinder the young happiness. All of these "are a collection of brilliant punchlines that push the boundaries of probability, but do not allow anyone to ask for it."
