Trivia

Konstantin Wecker composed many different themes for this mini-series but none of them sounded "happy" enough for Helmut Dietl. One day Dietl called Wecker and said that he would need the theme immediately, so Wecker made up a tune on the spot and whistled it to Dietl over the phone. The director liked it the song so much that he used it as the theme for the series. See more »
