Youth thrash protest The author's favorite film. Wim Wenders at the Berlinale left the hall 10 minutes after the start (which deserved a sarcastic mention in "120 Days of Bottrop"), and Udo Kir and Tilda Swinton were offered to play in Christoph's next film (they became "Egomania - an island without hope"). The film is a free fantasy on a Nazi theme, which blows prosperity and non-participation. The parents put on old uniforms at the picnic and begin to pursue their son Joe (Helge Schneider). However, the narrative is nonlinear due to the editing, which constantly returns to certain scenes (walking with torches through the Rosendell mine, where the test laboratory is located in the plot, or Joe’s performance as Hitler on the balcony – Helge Schneider will still play Hitler in the mainstream cinema). The main plus of the film is the jazz musician Helge Schneider (his music for this film will sound again in Bottrop) and picturesque footage of nature, but they would not have looked so shrill if they had not been interspersed with unappetizing brain-eating and some mincemeat (hello, German Chainsaw Massacre). All of this makes sense when viewed as a manifesto of generational disobedience and struggle.
