Kotsch is an Austrian fiction film directed by Helmut Köpping from 2006 .
action
In the not very dynamic Styrian town of Fohnsdorf , four friends live with the silent agreement that they will have no problems. They skilfully close their eyes to reality and the things that they urgently need to change and prefer to develop various strategies to kill time. When Alf falls in love and fails, he realizes the need to change something and thereby shakes the fragile structure of the friendship between four people programmed to look away.
Reviews
"Helmut Köppings Kotsch lives of a defamatory, hanging with the irresistible force of an entire truckload of bock beer between images. Just like the great British everyday comedies of the nineties. Just stop in Styrian. "
“ Kotsch can be read as an attempt to show lukewarm, half-full throttle. Actually, it's not about anything. But if you look closely, it's actually about everything: frustration, abuse, friends, deception, misunderstandings, heroes, philosophy in the broadest sense and all too human. You also learn how to (not) sell a calculator. And all in Fohnsdorf. Cult."
Awards
Kotsch's screenplay was awarded the Carl Mayer Screenplay Prize.
