Ballhaus Barmbek (1988)

Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

The sad and diverse romantic lives of the people who come to a ballroom named Ballhaus Barmbek are closely followed in this drama. Each table in the ballroom has a telephone on it so as to speed up the mating process. Some of those who come to the ballroom are pathetic, like the overweight Elvis fan whose makes a shrine to his idol. Others are simply hard-pressed to remain polite, like the studly Axel, whom all the dance-hall's unattached women (and many of those who are attached) want to dance with. One of the patrons is a crazed old man who rails out against the world in his own poetic language. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
