Obcy musi fruwac (1994)

Berlin 1990: soon after the collapse of the wall, in the atmosphere of the approaching reunion of Germany. Invited by his friends-actors who have been living abroad for years now, Max, a Polish stage director, arrives in Berlin. Working together they try to carry out their dream: to stage a performance suspended by the martial law ten years earlier. The way they raise the money - moonlighting, selling pieces of the historical wall, coping with the soulless, inflexible machine of bureaucracy - constitutes the central, often humorous, plot of the film. In their efforts the four protagonists are allied by Regina, an interpreter familiar with the local habits and practices.
