Punta grande

A German family, Fred, Lilian and the teen-ager Luzi, go to Argentina for their summer holidays. They manage to find accommodation for one night in the hotel Punta Grande, but later persuade the owner to let them stay longer. During the course of the next days, the lower middle-class Germans undergo a complete transformation. They engage in flirtations, eat and drink merrily and allow themselves things they have never allowed before. What is curious is that things happen and do not happen at the same time. In the end we realise that our heroes have doubled, they live in two separate worlds at the same time, and when these two merge, they attain perfect happiness. (Verleiher-Text)
