Acting
Berlin, beginning of the 1930s. Harry and Ede always have brilliant plans to raise money. They want to steal gold from a dental practice, sell pedigree dogs for expensive money, or sell cheap earrings as rare collectibles but it seems that their brilliant plans fail every time.
Based on Annette Kolb’s autobiographical novel of the same name, THE SWING is a lavish, breathless reconstruction of life in Munich towards the end of the 19th century. The deceptively simple story centers around the Lautenschlags, a Bavarian-French Catholic family overflowing with artistry but short on practicalities like financial acumen.
