- DirectorEd HerzogStarsSebastian BezzelIlse NeubauerEisi Gulp'Die, you pig!'. The words are emblazoned on the wall of school principal Höpfl's home for all the villagers to see. Soon after, this very man is found lying dead as a doornail on the train tracks. Franz Eberhofer, the local policeman in the sleepy Lower Bavarian province of Niederkaltenkirchen, suspects murder. And the prospect is one that does not entirely displease him, as this backwoods offers very little excitement other than the fantastic meals with his cooking-obsessed Grandma or the constant stress with his Beatles-loving Dad. He is supported by Rudi Birkenberger, now a department-store detective but previously with Franz in the Munich detective squad until both were suspended. The Höpfl case gets even more tangled when a second corpse is found, that of a drug-addict hustler with whom Höpfl had been in contact. Franz must also cope with the fact that his Susi is having an affair and he thinks the lover is the Thai offspring of his estranged brother, who is supposed to be their babysitter.6/10

- DirectorEd HerzogStarsSebastian BezzelSimon SchwarzLisa Maria Potthoff"Feelings always suck." Lower-Bavarian village police officer Franz Eberhofer internalized this deeply-felt wisdom long ago. That is why he suffers only moderately when his girlfriend Susi distances herself. Even in the event of the neighboring Mooshammerhof burns down, Eberhofer does not break out into unrest. Even the fact that an attractive woman from Munich was killed in the fire does not irritate Franz. What really throws him off balance is that the doctor attests that his lifestyle is hazardous to his health and puts him on a strict diet: lots of vegetables, and no more red meat--certainly no more meatloaf. Tough conditions for the following murder investigation, which involves a new hotel or jealousy. Suspicious figures include Ms. Grimm, the victim's mother, a gay couple, and local soccer god Buengo. Unfortunately, Susi tasked Eberhofer with looking after their toddler Pauli for a while, which hinders police work. Worse, self-appointed private detective Rudi Birkenberger rushes to the rescue to advise on nutrition, education, and investigation without being asked. Can Franz get through this whole dilemma without those strengthening liver meat rolls?7/10

- DirectorOlaf SaumerStarsEckhard BaumFats DominoCornelia FroboessECKIS WORLD is a documentary about the owner of probably the oldest Video-store in the World. Eckhard Baum opened in the summer of 1975 in Kassel, the Film-Shop. With the sale and exchange of Super8 films started everything. Shortly thereafter bought Ecki the first video recorder and took films illegal from tv, but what he still did not know from the movies and on television gave these tapes. Later he bought the first original movies on VHS, Beta and Video2000 order to lend. Today, still more video tapes on the shelves as DVDs. The film shows Ecki with his customers in its video library, his passion for film and his life outside the video-library.7/10
