Welcome to Hindafing II - After
resigning as mayor of the provincial village of Hindafing
and despite his penchant for flops, failures and a string
of bad luck, Alfons Zischl (Maximilian Brückner) almost
accidentally ends up becoming a representative in the
Bavarian State Parliament in Munich. Yet even in this
official position he quickly finds himself knee-deep in
further political and personal fiascos ...
A complex, Fargo-style look at the dark underbelly of our
modern Western society: Character-driven, darkly comic and
unexpectedly moving. The second season of the multiple

at modern political and social issues that everyone can
relate to.

"Oktoberfest"
/ "Oktoberfest 1900" / "Empire Oktoberfest" (WT):
Betafilm will present the 6-part
series at upcoming MIPCOM
- The World's Entertainment Content Market, 14-17 October
2019, Palais des Festivals, Cannes, France, to
international buyers.
For that, a trailer is announced, but here is a first flyer (with pictures):
1900. Munich's Oktoberfest. A traditional annual
celebration of the long-since-faded Bavarian royalty.
After already running for nearly a century, it is a major
source of income – especially for the city's brewery
bosses. Many are reliant on the profits made from selling
beer at the Oktoberfest, as is the small family brewery
headed by Ignaz and Maria Hoflinger (Francis Fulton-Smith
and Martina Gedeck). When Curt Prank (Mišel Maticevic), a
new player, comes to town, his ruthless acquisition
methods upset the balance of power. Resisting his shadowy
buy-out, Maria soon pays a bloody price for sticking to
her guns. The thirst for revenge leads to a devastating
and vicious war breaking out among Munich's beer mafia,
revealing the ugly face that lurks behind the festive
façade of the Oktoberfest. Yet in the chaos, a forbidden
love between Maria's elder son Roman (Klaus Steinbacher)
and Curt's beautiful daughter Clara (Mercedes Müller) is
blossoming… |
