About Zwei Bayern im Harem
Jonathan, a well-fed ship's cook, and his friend Michael go ashore in an oriental port city after a long sea voyage. They cannot resist the lure of an enticing drug den, where they are mercilessly plied with drink and robbed. They find refuge with the wealthy passenger Hieronymus Walden, who is staying at a luxury hotel. However, the two Bavarians must agree to rescue his granddaughter Kathi, who has disappeared into an oriental harem.
Directed by Joe Stöckel, Zwei Bayern im Harem leans on a strong ensemble — Joe Stöckel, Beppo Brem, Walter Buschhoff — 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 1957.
