Kaiserschmarrn
Synopsis
Alex Gaul is convinced that he will soon make it big as an actor. Until then, he'll just have to continue playing the porn stud. His seriously ill grandmother's last wish to see him on television forces him to do something quickly. his resemblance to Zacharias Zucker, whom his grandmother adores, gives Alex a daring idea: he could swap places with the home movie star? but the bitchy Zucker can only be convinced by a skillful knockout blow. The problems for Alex are only just beginning. He has to protect his cover with increasingly absurd and daring actions and at the same time prevent the charming hotel employee Yve from mistaking him, Alex, for Zucker, making her unattainable for Alex. But soon even Alex no longer knows whether he is him or Zucker.
