Der Erdnußmann
Eddy is a poster maker in Berlin and when he returns home he eats peanuts while watching television, until the day he meets Margot who gives him a little confidence in himself and in his physique. He is chosen by an advertising agency Berlin, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall: Eddy (Achim Grubel) from the east is the undisputed number 1 in the business: nobody sticks as quickly as he does. In the evenings, the bill poster sits in his booth, feeds peanuts and ponders why women only ever fly at his "friend" Ralf (Jürgen Watzke). The gloomy hours are over suddenly when Eddy is discovered for an advertising campaign. As "Shaky the peanut man" he makes it big. With a drilled Golf GTI and a lot of loud hi-fi boom, he dashes into new life. His recently established tender bond with the luscious Margot (F. Troegner) falls by the wayside - Dietmar Klein scoffs at stupid advertising and caricatures East-West sensitivities - a deserved Max Ophüls Prize winner in 1992.
