Klappe Cowboy!

Klappe Cowboy!Clapper Cowboy!

Filmforum, Germany 2012, 85 Min.

The flat Elbe Marshes were simply too confining for the self-proclaimed directing talent Cowboy. He straddles his BMX bike and rolls straight into Berlin. Here he wants to realize his major film “Acht Fäuste gegen Berlin”. After all, he has amazing connections - his script is at the top af the pile on a major producer's desk. There's only a little problem with the financing. Totally skint, but full of self-confidence, he accepts every order he can get, only to mess it up well and truly every time: Internet erotica, fish films, currywurst videos, anything goes! His “team” is made up of the depressive actor Kinski (“Crimewatch”), who is put behind the camera, and beer lover Molle on the boom. When Cowboy meets the artist Yps, and shoots a pornographic art film with her, he stirs up an artistic hornets' nest that by far surpasses his dilettante qualities. And on top of everything Yps breaks Cowboy's heart...
