Brief synopsis

Nach dem Welterfolg der Dreigroschenoper will das Kino den gefeierten Autor des Stücks für sich gewinnen. Doch Bertolt Brecht (Lars Eidinger) ist nicht bereit, nach den Regeln der Filmindustrie zu spielen. Seine Vorstellung vom „Dreigroschenfilm“ ist radikal, kompromisslos, politisch, pointiert. Er weiß, dass die Produktionsfirma sich niemals darauf einlassen wird. Während vor den Augen des Autors in seiner Filmversion der Dreigroschenoper der Kampf des Londoner Gangsters Macheath (Tobias Moretti) mit dem Kopf der Bettelmafia Peachum (Joachim Król) Form anzunehmen beginnt, sucht Brecht die öffentliche Auseinandersetzung. Er bringt die Produktionsfirma vor Gericht. Ein Dichter inszeniert die Wirklichkeit – das hat es noch nie gegeben!
