Hinter den sieben Gleisen

1959 · 100 min

A gentle, humanist comedy that drifts along with its shabby, good-hearted outsiders, warming you slowly as their makeshift world grows.

Overview: They live behind the rails of the classification yard in a small and shabby hut. They take the days as they come, refuse to work on principle and pinch together their livelihood. The three tramps Dürst, Barbarossa and Clown are content with what they have and ignore the outside world, and so far they have fared well. Until now...
How it feels: Warm, whimsical, earnest and melancholic. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Found family, isolation, parenthood, friendship
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
