"Wahnsinn? Wer spricht von Wahnsinn?" (Madness? Who speaks of madness?)
Interesting farce that feels, like it should have been directed by Kurt Palm.

One of the funniest bizarre comedies ever. What is a whale doing in the middle of the Alps? What good is a tennis court built on a slope? What if Aladdin's genie were female and would only grant each villager one wish? What would yours be? All these, and more, and hilariously played out in this Austrian Wunderbar-land!
