    A rock band moves into a farmhouse in a little village. They are eyed suspiciously by the citizens of the village. It finally comes to a killing in "self-defense" ("Notwehr" is he German word for self-defense). The most amazing thing about this movie is the acting of the rock band "Guru Guru", most notably Mani Neumeier. His character is absolutely believable. Of course he only plays himself, but it is stunning nevertheless. And the music the guys play is superb. Good acting from Günther Lamprecht too, as always. I only wish they would rerun this on TV. The first time I saw it already was a rerun; I was only 8 years old when it was first shown.
