Germany, 2004, 96 min., 35mm Director: Anno Saul, Screenplay: Fatih Akin, Ruth Toma, Jan Berger, Anno Saul, Cast: Denis Moschitto, Nora Tschirner, Guven Kirac

Here’s the German comedic hit about love, parenthood, martial arts, family and really big stuffed pitas. Hamburg-born Ibrahim “Ibo” Secmez aspires to make the first German kung-fu movie. Though stymied by actual plot details, he’s already got a killer title: Lethal Fist Of The Yellow Avenger. Ibo’s plans are derailed, however, by his impregnation of lovely and mature German girlfriend Titzi.

Anno Saul worked extensively in TV, industrial and advertising films before parlaying that knowledge into the story Kebab Connection.

Excerpts credit  film critic Eddie Cockrell.

German with English subtitles; $6/$4
