action

Johannes Brunner's film debut portrays Oktoberfest as a place of burst illusions and romantic dreams, false promises and crazy hopes. The Oktoberfest service ( Barbara Rudnik ) is at the center of the episodic film . She doubts her married life with the unfaithful musician Max ( August Schmölzer ). Richard ( Peter Lohmeyer ) gets into a serious conflict between his new flame and fatherly responsibility. The Italian Alessandro ( Marco Basile ) falls in love with a Japanese ( Nahoko Fort-Nishigami ) on their honeymoon. A traditional showman family struggles for financial survival and rubs itself against the downside of the Oktoberfest, while the police station at Oktoberfest is exposed to an abstract threat of assassination and memories of the Oktoberfest attack in 1980 are awakened.

Reviews

“Johannes Brunner took this kaleidoscope of stories apart with great staging finesse and put them back together again into a harmonious, varied whole. Since the characters are explored very deeply in their very short moments on the screen, the film offers a whole range of talented German mimes the opportunity to make convincing appearances. In addition to established stars like Barbara Rudnik, Peter Lohmeyer or the long-serving Gunnar Möller, actors of the second guard like Hildegard Kuhlenberg, Anna Brüggemann and Christoph Luser also know how to attract attention. The fact that both the stories and the atmosphere at Europe's biggest binge are extremely authentic is another advantage of Brunner's thoughtful and subtle script that should not be disregarded. An entertaining German ensemble film that will hopefully find imitators in the future. "

“The stories presented in the film may not be particularly original in every case and the implementation not always particularly innovative, but the abundance of fleetingly linked action and the fact that the director always succeeds in creating atmospheric climaxes in the midst of the hectic shimmering entertainment establish and find islands of calm provide entertaining entertainment.
