Buck's best film, starring a fabulous Bernd-Michael Lade
6 September 1999 | by S.F.1014 – See all my reviews

Köpper has just absolved the Police Academy and would like to start his career in one of northern Germany's bigger cities like Lübeck or Kiel. But unfortunately he has to help the police of a five-people-village to hunt a cruel cow-murder.

Buck films boredom - in an exciting way.
