Overview

Nikki Moser, a charismatic blond womanizer, finds himself entangled in a classic Bavarian bargain: he gets funding from the city burgomaster to purchase a hotel, on the not-so-small condition that he marries the mayor’s daughter, Marianne. Nikki isn’t keen on being tied down, so his buddy Tony proposes a cunning workaround involving a loan and sending both the mayor and his daughter packing. Of course, getting a loan proves trickier than planned, setting off a chain reaction of comedic misadventures. Set against a backdrop of hotels, fitness centers, and plenty of risqué escapades, this German sex comedy revels in its parade of nudity, erotic antics, and the cultural clash of the so-called Swedish lifestyle.
