Der Mann auf dem Baum

2011 · 90 min · ★ 3.0 · Comedy, TV Movie

Divorced hotel employee Hans seems to have lost his son Moritz forever. His ex-wife Linda wants to emigrate to Denmark with him and her new boyfriend. Although he is a man, he no longer has any say in society, because men are, after all, evolution's discontinued models. And since feminism has long been institutionalized, society is becoming more and more feminine and he has fewer and fewer opportunities, he feels powerless and helpless against his ex's decision. So he decides to sit on the dancing lime tree in the middle of the market square to protest against all these injustices.
