Tobias Meinecke

Scuggs, the utterly unpleasant super of a Bronx tenement is driven to desperate measures by an innocent-appearing, but manipulative 11 year-old girl. Based on the graphic novel by American Master Will Eisner, Meinecke combines larger-than-life characters, borrows from the traditions of melodrama and applies a visual language derived from German Expressionists to create a haunting tale, that won particular favor with New York critics.

After 15 years of family hustle and bustle with her husband Max and their two children, Ally has had enough. She decides to finally realize herself and takes a job at a TV station where Max also works as a presenter of a show. Ally quickly becomes a talented and successful TV star, which doesn't exactly please Max. When the charming and attractive Rudi Kayser starts courting Ally, stress is the order of the day.
