Leif

A banger of a movie.

1987 · 108 min · ★ 6.1 · Comedy

In the small working community, the entry in the local newspaper hits like a bomb. The signature "Leif" claims that the town's large arms company Rotum exports weapons illegally. Gunnar Volt, CEO of Rotum, gets a shock. Imagine that someone has the audacity to say that about the community's pride Rotum - even if it now happens to be true. He immediately gathers the management and everyone agrees: Leif must be found - and stopped. But who is this mysterious Leif?

A very new revue where four gentlemen* (i.e. new in their role as old) in words, tones, jumps and steps, together with an unimaginably large ten-piece orchestra, tackle all contemporary topics of conversation in a breakneck quickmix. No common thread to get hung up on. No plot to shuffle the cards with. Just the very best in a delicate distillate that will make the happy even happier and everyone else just as happy.
