Bruno Stroszek is released from prison and warned to stop drinking. He has few skills and fewer expectations: with a glockenspiel and an accordion, he ekes out a living as a street musician. He befriends Eva, a prostitute down on her luck and they join his neighbor, Scheitz, an elderly eccentric, when he leaves Germany to live in Wisconsin.

    “This is a bigger jail than I just got out of” - Charles Manson Hilarious and wonderful performances! Werner Herzog never fails to make me wanna go live life! lol Pretty sure Alan Jackson got the inspiration for “Livin’ on Love” from this score
