Volksbühnen actor and director Herbert Fritsch and celebrity cast transform the classic Hamlet tale into a hilarious, multimedia fever dream.

Volksbühnen actor and director Herbert Fritsch and celebrity cast transform the classic Hamlet tale into a hilarious, multimedia fever dream.


It was shot without a budget in just seven days at a Brandenburg country estate using props and costumes provided by various theaters. Among the outstanding ensemble actors participating are Alexander Khuon, Alexander Scheer, Jule Böwe and Adolfo Assor.


"A "Hamlet" adaptation that looks as if Herbert Achternbusch and Luis Buñuel had shot it together on LSD and then transformed it with all the finesses of digital image editing into a psychedelic trip that alternately causes giddiness, laughter, perplexed amazement, and, above all, good humor while watching." (Süddeutsche Zeitung)
