Der Spitzname
A sequel to the comedies "Der Vorname" (2018) and "Der Nachname" (2022), this story takes the family to the Tyrolean Alps, where Anna and Thomas are hosting their wedding celebration. Much has changed since their last reunion: Anna has finally made it as an actress, while Thomas is on the brink of a major promotion—if he can survive the company’s mandatory sensitivity training. Dorothea’s husband, René, has become a classic helicopter parent to their young twin sons, while the perpetually grumpy Stephan has been ousted from his university position after a scandal. His wife, Elisabeth, meanwhile, is secretly boosting the household finances through Bitcoin trading. As if that weren’t enough, Stephan and Elisabeth’s teenage children, Cajus and Antigone, bring their spirited brand of youthful wokeness to the mix, throwing the already-chaotic wedding preparations into further disarray. With tensions running high and misunderstandings piling up, the entire wedding teeters on the brink of collapse.
