Lena Schneider doesn't have it easy. Frustrated by her life and "traumatized" by an anti-authoritarian upbringing, she is compelled by her mother Doris, a psychotherapist and teenage wannabe, to vacation in Southeast Asia. Her worst fear comes true during her flight - she is seated next to Cem Öztürk, a walking bundle of testosterone. It's a clash of German emancipation and Turkish machismo. As if it couldn't get any worse, their plane makes an emergency water landing. Lena now finds herself stranded on a deserted island with Cem, his devoutly religious sister Yagmur and a stuttering Greek, Costa. While they come to blows in this paradise, at a hotel Doris meets Metin Öztürk, the conventional-bourgeois father who is also in search for his children. (Berlinale)

Suck Me Shakespeer is good enough advertising for this film, for which a lot of people on this site wrote scathing reviews, as could be expected. On the other hand, I admit that this comedy is not nearly as good as the Suck Me Shakespeer. But it has a number of elements that show some good work by Dagtekin and Elyas, because the comedy doesn’t lack their distinctive humor. So I really enjoyed it. The way Turks and Germans were leaning into each other was simply flawless. They can get even more brutal next time.
