Logline

A world premiere: A panorama of martial Hollywood dreams and crazy village life.

Usually, nothing ever happens in Wiesenwalde. But now war has broken out — at least on camera, as a major series is being filmed. There is plenty of commotion behind the scenes, too. While a power outage triggers anxiety, a journalist feels he’s on to a big story, and old disputes resurface, the mayor must contend with a tank that’s been left in front of the town hall.



The world premiere will be hosted with Shanghei International Film Festival.
