Plot
Film about a pair of traveling entertainers and con-men and their problems with jobs, money and women. We follow them in a period there it goes downhill with engagements.
Sinekatalog’s take
Two traveling entertainers and con-men struggle with money, jobs and women as their luck fades. A Danish comedy-drama with a shabby, humane charm, it suits those who like rueful, picaresque tales.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
