Go Trabi Go

About This Movie

Go Trabi Go is one of those quirky little gems that captures a slice of life in post-GDR. The Struutz family, with their trusty Trabant, sets off on what should be a simple holiday to Italy, but of course, nothing goes as planned. The film’s charm lies in its light-hearted humor and the absurd challenges they face on their journey. The pacing is a bit erratic, reflecting the chaotic spirit of the time, which adds to its appeal. The performances are genuine, with a warmth that makes you root for them. The practical effects and real locations lend an authenticity that transports you back to the era. It's all about the little moments and mishaps that define their adventure, making it distinctive in a field of road trip films.
