Overview:
Josef Nötzli has swapped his job as an accountant for a chicken farm in Switzerland. He wants to be just as successful as his twin brother John, who he believes runs the Aurora Hotel in Berlin. In reality, however, John is one of the biggest underworld bosses, and the "Aurora" is Berlin's most famous brothel. When John suddenly dies in Bangkok, Max, John's partner, wants to prevent anyone in Berlin from finding out about John's death at all costs. First, with Josef's help, he has to get the black money from the bank. Under the pretext of having to accept the inheritance, Max brings Josef to Berlin. Once there, of course, everyone believes that Josef is John, the feared underworld boss, and so a maelstrom of confusion ensues.

Move(de)

Eleven moving dates, eight friends: Philipp, Wiebke, Jessica, Maria, Swantje, Michael, Thomas, Dina – all in their twenties and mutually lonesome. And always searching: For a new city, a new job, an own apartment, a new, or even an old love. The search is never-ending, and so they repeatedly find themselves at a ritual gathering: someone moving. Boxes are shifted from one side of Berlin to the other, or the length and breadth of Germany, from one abode to the next as one life is exchanged for another. In 3 ZIMMER/KÜCHE/BAD, director Dietrich Brüggemann portrays existences in which relationships, social networks and backdrops are in a constant state of flux; where best friends are the only, and therefore the most valuable constant. Humorous sketches of the self-conception of a generation for whom moving has become the symbol of a life on the go.
