From the venue:
Based on the Kurt Tucholsky’s biography and novel “Schloss Gripsholm”, this film plunges the audience into the pleasure-craving, decadent world of Berlin cabaret at the beginning of the 1930s. After writing inflammatory articles about the Nazis, in the summer of 1932, Kurt flees to the Swedish palace of Gripsholm with his girlfriend Lydia and their friends, the seductive vaudeville singer Billie and the passionate fly-boy Karlchen. Nothing will be the same again. (German and Swedish w/ English subtitles)
