Otto - The Disaster Movie

2000

A man from Ostfriesland travels to Hamburg and sets course for America on a steamship to conquer this New World as well.

The Very Same Munchhausen

1979

A philosophical and poetic portrait of the famous (or maybe infamous?) Baron Munchhausen. His crazy, yet very merriment, stories, views and behavior is what sets him apart from others. He becomes alienated from the society that failed to grasp his brilliance. In fact, his brilliance is what underlines the faults with the society itself. It's a beautiful yet tragic story that is filled with dense and intellectual dialogue.
