Tapetenwechsel

Marcel Schlurfke is not exactly the heartthrob that friends Elke and Gitte are looking for. So they think about how to get rid of this annoying admirer. The best way is to put him in a position where he makes a fool of himself. This is what happens to the aforementioned Marcel, who suffers a total shipwreck with his "cooking skills". And after this failure, Marcel can only place himself in the care of his father Wollermann.Elke's father is a very desirable man in certain respects: in his spare time, he likes to wallpaper and transform worn-out rooms into pretty rooms. For Elke herself, however, this is a problem, because her father repeatedly takes possession of her (desired) admirers and promotes her to "honorary helper" in wallpapering matters. Only Marcel Schlurfke proves his touchingly helpless clumsiness in these assignments too.

My Brother the Vampire

Josh is about to turn 30; he's mentally retarded, and likes to play at being a vampire. His sister Nicole is 15, and dealing with her impending womanhood; middle brother Mike is the "normal" one, but in some ways the most childish - his latest conquest is Nadine, who runs the dog kennel at his security guard job. Nic is fixated on getting laid, and watches Mike and Nadine through the skylight with Josh. Josh also gets fixated on sex, though he has no clear idea what it's all about, and in particular on Nadine; to Mike's chagrin, she seems more interested in Josh than in him.

Sympathizing with seniors who still aspire to some dignity and self-realization, he helps them get around the rules, such as smuggling in contraband, and ends up inspiring them to form a rock band and enter a free podium competition. But it doesn't square with his own last shot as band guitarist.—KGF Vissers

Zu Blöd um Alt zu sein: Otto Schenk & Michael Niavarani im Gespräch

Since we never managed to meet up for coffee in person, we decided to get so close on stage that we could even cross paths. We'll mostly sit down the whole time. A firework of punchlines—whenever we can think of any. Nostalgic memories—whenever we can think of any. Philosophical thoughts—when we can think of any. And if we can't think of anything, we'll just tell you what comes to mind... An evening from the Globe Vienna.

Zum Glück gibt's kein Patent

In her work, Monika Funke Stern operates at the intersection between experimental film and video art. She relies both on a variety of filmic techniques and effects and a powerful dramaturgy of filmic devices. She develops her own visual signature and a great interest in her subjects, which often play with elements of science fiction to develop a critical take on reality. In her comical Zum Glück gibt’s kein Patent she portrays Norma DIN working at the patent office, played by Hella von Sinnen. Norma’s ordinary life and workaday world is shaped by the endless meaninglessness of the neutral abstraction of inventions. The story reaches a climax when Norma is presented with a robot that is intended to replace employees like herself one day. Norma can apply a whole series of bureaucratic policy provisions and classify the robot as not worthy of a patent.

Teenosaurus Rex

She was sweet, she was cute. But just before her 14th birthday, Daddy’s little princess mutates into a petulant pubescent nightmare. Journalist Hannes Wenger decides to take a time-out from work to guide his daughter Carla through this difficult phase in her life and, above all, to keep her away from alcohol, boys and other temptations. This is easier said than done, however, and when his wife Sara goes back to work, Hannes proves himself entirely inept at raising a teenager. Whether it’s Carla’s birthday party, her mobile phone contract or her first time, Hannes makes one awkward blunder after another. The fact that other teens have embarrassing fathers provides only faint consolation; Hannes’ best friend is a war reporter named Holger who prefers to be shot at in war zones rather than stay at home and be driven crazy by his own teenage nightmare.
