Story
Julian Radlmaier’s new fiilms combines Marxism and vampirism and is a wonderfully ironic, absurd comedy. 1928: Soviet worker Ljowuschka (Aleksandre Koberidze) is cast as Trotsky for an Eisenstein film. His dreams of life as an actor are shot down when Trotsky falls out of favour with Stalin and he is cut out of the film. So he decides to try his luck in Hollywood. Before he can cross the Atlantic, he ends up in a mundane German resort, where he happens to meet the eccentric factory owner Octavia Flambow-Jansen (Lilith Stangenberg). A summer romance is in the air – the only problem is that there are vampires about. And Octavia is one of them.
