Intelligent, dark critique of contemporary German culture - all of the episodes take place in different toilets in an all-out medley of meanness and with an ensemble of young and old, established and unestablished. A low-budget shoot - nonetheless with a very professional look, refined screenplay sensibilities and subtleties of humor that remain lodged in one's throat long after having seen the picture - how low can these Ur-Germanic characters sink? Low enough for example to rip off an old woman and her dying husband? Low enough to screw your husband just for money? Low enough to mock the national anthem for egotistical gain? Yes, yes and once again yes. All facets of German culture are approached - and all with lovely disdain. If you're interested in German independents, definitely check it out.
