Watchlist:

Gosbert Klee and Thilo "Abo" Abogast are anything but down on their luck. Nothing in their pockets, nothing on their minds and nothing but trouble to boot! But just as Gosbert's caravan has been blown up in an accident and Abo is being pursued by a bailiff, fate seems to give them another chance: by chance, the kidnapped multimillionaire Lorenz Kellermann falls into their hands. A really good opportunity to collect the ransom themselves - but there are a few other bad guys involved....

Why you might like this:

Fans of quirky, character-driven comedies will delight in this 1999 German film directed by Gernot Roll. The story of two hapless schemers who inadvertently kidnap a millionaire features a charming blend of slapstick and heart, elevated by the committed performances of lead actors Mark Aizikovitsch and Reinhard Vom Bauer.
