Old White Man
Directed by Simon Verhoeven
Produced by Wiedemann & Berg Film, Constantin Film
A satirical comedy about generational and cultural friction that uses a dinner-party setup to expose the gap between public performance and private belief.
In order to finally get that long-awaited promotion, Heinz Hellmich, an old white man, has to show his "wokest" side at work. When he invites his superiors to a private dinner at his home, his family's politically correct façade quickly begins to crumble and the evening takes a hair-raising turn.
