About Lüg weiter, Liebling
"Hape" Wegener is an old hippie and has a lot of debts. At the cemetery he happens to meet the widow Martha Ebinghaus, who clearly comes from wealthy circles. Hape poses as a mysterious diplomat in order to gain the trust of the unstable Martha and then wants to reap financial benefits from it. Martha is fascinated by Hape and his stories and Hape's plan seems to be working.
Directed by Gabriela Zerhau, Lüg weiter, Liebling leans on a strong ensemble — Hannelore Elsner, Götz George, Oliver Wnuk — 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 2010.
