Machan
Absurd stories from real life does not lack in the film industry, but in Machan an otherwise serious and realistic situation gets a comic turn. A lack of prospects for the future gives a group of Tamil and Singalese men the idea to apply for a handball tournament in Bayern, where they pose as a non-existent Srilankese national team. In Machan serious subjects like poverty and refugee policies are treated with humour, warmth and optimism, and the likeable characters are guaranteed to charm audiences. Watch out for some hysterical handball comedy! lab
