Netto is a German feature film by Robert Thalheim from 2005 .
action
15-year-old Sebastian has lived with his mother Angelika since his parents divorced. When she becomes pregnant by her friend Bernd and moves in with him, he goes to his father Marcel. Marcel is unemployed, but has rented a small shop space in a tenement building in Prenzlauer Berg in Berlin and tries to sell alarm systems. His big dream is to become a bodyguard. At first he doesn't want to accept Sebastian, but then both get to know and appreciate each other better.
Sebastian tries to get his father's life back in order. He helps him with writing applications and tries to get him used to his constant complaining about everything. Meanwhile, Sebastian gets to know Nora, who is currently delivering advertising newspapers. He meets with her and the two become a couple. But when he wanted to introduce her to his father, he was hanging over the toilet after too much beer. The well-developed relationship between father and son seems to be in jeopardy, but the two come together again after Sebastian realizes after a short trip to his mother and her boyfriend that these are not the right thing for him.
The film is permeated with the music of Peter Tschernig , who was once considered "Johnny Cash of the East" in the GDR. Finally, the artist gets a (silent) guest appearance.
