A Stasi Comedy

A good idea - maybe a couple, handled ham fistedly.

The opening traffic light routine is like the whole film, offering comic possibilities that never eventuate. Kross (BALLOON) is recruited into the secret police through whose ranks he rises and is planted as a spy to root out subversives among the malcontents squatting in a run down area. They are of course more appealing than the hero's colleagues and he finds himself involved with a couple of young women willing to get naked for him. Which one gets to be his wife of thirty years and what effect will the release of his coveted personal file have?

Another film (LE DOULEUR, DER PASFALSCHER) where the past has gone kaki.
