Ohne Gnade

The crunchy sisters Biene and Püppi decide that there must finally be an end to the emotional and financial disaster of their mother Hilde. Therefore, they successfully rely on the testosterone reflexes of those men who have dirt on them, but not every representative from the macho camp can be so easily degraded to a fool. When the rip-off blackmail victims Alfons and Latten-Harry start a counter-offensive and want to have the girls killed by the windy tattoo eagle, the following, unrestrained over-excited cat-and-mouse duel escalates into a chaos course across all allotments, ice cream parlors, law firms, nightclubs and sausage stalls of the backwater…

Directed by Birgit Stein, Ohne Gnade leans on a strong ensemble — Catrin Striebeck, Sylta Fee Wegmann, Sina Tkotsch — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2013.
