About Hausbau mit Hindernissen
The dream of owning a house in the countryside comes true by chance for a family with two children. The parents buy "a house in need of slight renovation" at auction, but have obviously overstretched themselves in several ways. Of all things, the supposed snag in this house, which was nevertheless purchased at a low price, is two strange old neighbors who soon turn out to be a blessing for the family...
Directed by Till Franzen, Hausbau mit Hindernissen leans on a strong ensemble — Katharina Schüttler, Hans Löw, Peter Franke — 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 screen titles of 2017.
