Der große Verhau & Willi Tobler und der Untergang der 6. Flotte

Edition Filmmuseum 22

2-disc DVD: In the first century of the third millennium, a galactic civil war is raging between governments, industrial giants and space pirates. Run for your lives! The Big Mess features space captain Douglas, the pirate couple Sterr, a space admiral and countless other characters trying to eke out a living in the cosmos. But whenever they get anywhere, they find they've been beaten to it by monopolist enterprises. In Willi Tobler and the Decline of the 6th Fleet, Willi (Alfred Edel) endeavours to survive in a world where annihilistic galactic battles rage, by taking a job at the centre of power. But it's the wrong side that he takes in this civil war. Extras include additional science fiction short films by Alexander Kluge as well as a ROM section with Kluge's book "Learning Processes with a Deadly Outcome".
