About This Movie

So, 'Alles im Eimer' is a quirky little gem from 1981 that blends slapstick comedy with a touch of existential crisis. The story revolves around Leo Bergert, an inventor whose grand ideas always seem to blow up in his face—quite literally at times. There's this palpable atmosphere of chaos as Leo's life spirals into a series of misadventures, all while he's trying to create this new fuel.
