‘Shut up, Čevapčiči! We have European prices here!’ Hanno Pöschl as pimp Joe doesn't miss a beat. The best cat in the stable gets to work an extra shift of ficki-ficki at lunchtime in the migrant workers' barracks. In reality, he grumbles because Kathi no longer shows up, because she lets a Piefkinesen, a Jew and a communist to boot, stay and sleep in her council flat. A man who is supposed to be a terrorist. And soon, a special commando unit descends on the Karl Marx Hof. The German director Hans-Christof Stenzel, who chose to live in Vienna, was the wildest child of Austrian cinema. With OBSZÖN, he created EXIT Part 2, a snappy, bawdy political thriller satire against RAF paranoia, bigotry and provincialism.
