Das Fest der Liebe

Following "Das Begräbnis" in Mecklenburg, "The Festival of Love" now takes place in Swabia. For the Meurer quartet—Charly Hübner, Devid Striesow, Luise von Finckh, and Claudia Michelsen—the continuation of Grimme Award winner Jan Georg Schütte’s acclaimed improvised series brings a decidedly un-festive Christmas celebration. With his knack for quirky situational comedy, the writer and director once again gives his brilliant ensemble free rein, performing without a scripted dialogue.
