Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In another off-the-wall Achternbusch satire that is slow-paced, often unfunny and burdened with wooden acting, at least to those who are not Achternbusch fans, a factory worker carries around a stuffed dog (taxidermist-style) filled with gold and interacts with the Prime Minister, who drinks what looks like ketchup out of a bottle. Some of the comic barbs seem a little obscure, and other jokes -- like a Japanese tour guide played by a very Teutonic actress -- raise a chuckle for some viewers and a question mark for others.
