Logline

Worst Case Scenario

Could it get any worse? Not for costume designer Olga and film director Georg. They've just broken up, and now the two of them are stuck together on a campsite in Poland, making a comedy about the UEFA football championship that is doomed to fail. The shoot turns into a chaotic farce with actors and plot changes as often as a footballer changes his jersey, and each day another crew member abandons the sinking ship. The fact that Olga is pregnant becomes almost irrelevant. While Georg hysterically attempts to fulfill his inner artistic destiny, completing a film against all the odds, Olga vigorously seeks her fortune in today's Poland. Both are hopeless endeavours. In the end it's left to Georg and Olga to realize that a worst-case scenario is still better than no scenario at all.
