Dir. Loriot · Starring Loriot, Evelyn Hamann, Gerrit Schmidt-Foß, Irm Hermann, Hans Peter Korff, Inge Wolffberg · Music Rolf A. Wilhelm

Comedy

After ordering enough typewriting paper for 40 years, just to get discount, Heinrich Lohse is forced to retire.

VIBE

A gentle, observational comedy about the unexpected freedom and quiet absurdity of retirement. It feels like a warm, slightly melancholic embrace, exploring the search for meaning after a lifetime of routine. A thoughtful, character-focused experience.
