Carl Zuckmayer
Der Hauptmann von Köpenick
Unterhaltung
Based on the true story of the infamous grifter Wilhelm Voigt, unemployed shoemaker and small-time criminal, this German fairytale from Carl Zuckmayer exposes the preposterous laws, the potential nonsense of bureaucracy, and the results of corruption.Voigt needs a certificate of registration – for that, however, he needs a certificate of employment, with no papers and no job. His efforts aren’t helped when he attempts to resolve his conun-drum by breaking into the police department, landing him immediately behind bars. Fast-forward ten years, when Voigt is released from prison and decides to play the authorities at their own game...
