Old White Man

A smash box office hit in Germany, satirical ensemble comedy Old White Man, written and directed by Simon Verhoeven (Nightlife, Welcome to Germany), is a sharply observed, provocative exploration of exaggerated clichés and contemporary society’s generational and cultural divides. Middle-aged family man and advertising manager Heinz Hellmich (Jan Josef Liefers) is on a mission: to shed his image as an "old white man" and redeem himself at work to hopefully secure the promotion of his dreams. When his progressive boss and diverse colleagues accept his invitation to an intimate dinner at his home, Heinz sees it as the perfect opportunity to showcase his modern outlook on life. But as the evening unfolds, Heinz stumbles from one cringe-worthy faux pas to the next. When everyone is finally seated at the table, his family’s carefully curated facade begins to crack. With unexpected guests arriving and the night spiraling out of control, the dinner table discussion turns to sensitive topics and becomes a minefield of political correctness, clashing worldviews and awkward revelations, with comedic chaos ensuing!
