Der Papagei (1992)
Directed by Ralf Huettner
Overview
While the unemployed actor Dieter “Did” Stricker keeps his head above water as a barker, his old acquaintance Rainer turns up, who now works as a PR strategist for the radical right-wing NSDU party. Did’s rhetorical talent and his great poses would suit the faceless party well. With a few tricks, Rainer persuades his former colleague to run for office. With success: the popularity of the party increases, as do Stricker’s fees. But suddenly his conscience speaks out.
