About Werner and the Wizard of Booze
Comic artist Brösel trades a magic pen that helps him come up with funny stories for the promise to fulfill one of Rumpelstiltskin's wishes. The resulting animated films show episodes of the life of Werner, a plumber apprentice and motorbike enthusiast and his friends. They are interspersed with the live-action portions.
Directed by Niki List, Werner and the Wizard of Booze leans on a strong ensemble — Klaus Büchner, Rötger Feldmann, Andi Feldmann — 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 animation titles of 1990.
