action

Frank is in his early 30s, still lives with his mother and uncle and is accordingly dependent. He suffers from various real and imagined little illnesses and is a mother's boy overall.

Marc is the exact opposite, a rude and unhesitating daredevil. He doesn't ask, he acts.

One day Frank is out in the motorhome with his mother and uncle . During a break he is alone in the vehicle and tries to drive a short distance. He confuses forward and reverse gear and rams the motorcycle of the small crook Marc.

Frank offers immediate repairs and damages, of course, but Marc doesn't have time for that. He believes he killed someone in an argument and is on the run. So he took possession of the motorhome without further ado. Frank grows beyond himself and accompanies Marc in order not to lose the motorhome for good. Marc wants to go to Morocco to see his father, who supposedly owns an oasis there.

On the way, the two become more familiar with each other, and Frank begins to find the unusual freedom interesting. Against his usual habit, Marc is also becoming more accessible. The two get to know each other and gradually become friends. They even take turns driving. Turning back is no longer an option.

At one of the encounters on the side of the road, Frank falls in love with Ilvy, which Marc doesn't like. He finally wants to arrive. The bizarre "finder" Pauli also stops the journey, and an unknown pursuer is after the motorhome. The still fresh friendship is put to the test.

Eventually, the dissimilar friends achieve their goal and, if possible, everything will be fine.

Reviews

“A first film full of erratic transitions and connection errors, which breaks the boundaries of familiar cinema entertainment with silliness. At the same time, he entertains with his scratchy charm and delightful creative energy. "

- Lexicon of international film

“The feature film debut by Cyril Tuschi has a good chance of being voted 'worst film of the year': Subterranean humor, shaky images without end, zero plot and unfortunately also bad actors. Even Fabian Busch, who otherwise plays great, is completely lost here. "
