Looosers!

Deutschland 1994/1995 Spielfilm

Moritz and Karl, two terribly unsuccessful copywriters, sell completely fictitious insider information from their ad agency to a middleman of the competition, Jed Curtis.

 

They immediately spend the advance on having a good time: they throw a party where Karl falls head over heels in love with the Swedish girl Ulricka, a girlfriend of Rita, the girlfriend of Moritz, the friend of Karl, who subsequently rearranges his life around things Swedish. Moritz and Karl work on their fake campaign until they almost believe that they have the advertising account. Curtis pays the second instalment, there is a second party, and Karl gets to know Ulricka even better. But Jed Curtis discovers that Karl and Moritz have been constantly palming him off with completely fictitious advertising strategies. He has Karl, Moritz, Rita and Ulricka beaten up and gives them an ultimatum. Karl and Moritz break into their own agency to get their hands on the real campaign, are caught, fired, and taken to court for one million because they destroyed the real campaign by mistake.
