Synopsis:
Giving up-and-coming writers a chance, or better yet, two. The American playwright and later comedian Peter Paul Bergman wrote a film script in the summer of 1964 at the LCB workshop “Playwriting,” which formed the basis of Flowers is His Name. In this crime parody, detective Peter Flowers gets to deal with Nola, the “most beautiful and depraved woman in the world,” as it says in the opening credits: “Love is the material, ecstasy the action, today the time.”
Writer Uwe Brandner won the LCB’s screenplay competition in 1967 with a dystopian-experimental story, the filming of which was financed by Bayerischer Rundfunk. The idea: “What is generally referred to as reality, existence and so on is nothing more than a movie. We lead nothing more than a projected existence, we are nothing more than a movie.” In his search for the director of this reality, Blinker (Hanns Zischler in one of his first roles), a mixture of thinker and agent, is supported by Lizzy (Karina Ehret). Their counterparts: Berlin scene greats Günter Bruno Fuchs and Robert Wolfgang Schnell, who trudge through the city heavily armed and with a wry smile: “Fliege zur Linken wird mir ewig stinken.” (Source: Zeughauskino, author: Frederik Lang)
