Director: Andreas Dresen, 2009
A renowned actor named Otto is the epitome of the problematic but beloved ladies man. Even when drunk he still knows more about filmmaking than does the amateur who is directing him in his latest movie. The film's producer, wanting to protect his investment, encourages the director to hire a younger actor to re-shoot all the scenes made with the older actor – just in case. But what should the unreliable star do when a local actor joins the crew as his understudy?
The film is Dresen's second collaboration with esteemed scriptwriter Wolfgang Kohlhaase after 2005's “Summer in Berlin”.
