Ossi’s Eleven

2008 Comedy
5.2 / 10 · TMDB

Finally out again. The attempt to cheat his boss out of a truckload cost haulage driver Oswald a year of his life and his job. Now it's back home to the prefabricated building. It's just in time that Oswald's buddy Karl knows about trophies made from old D-Mark coins. In the iron foundry on the outskirts of the city, old coins worth several hundred thousand Deutschmarks are regularly stored for further processing - virtually unguarded. As the old coins can still be exchanged, this is a small but sure coup. While Karl is still laughing at Oswald's naivety, he is already beginning to put his plan into action. In a series of tragic and absurd situations, he recruits a team that couldn't be more different, from doped athletes to hated ex-Stasi men. They are united by their desire to use the money to make a difference.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its humor from the stark contrast between a heist's inherent precision and the endearing incompetence of its provincial crew. It relies on a familiar blueprint but explores it through a lens of local absurdity and charming naivety.

Those who tire of overly slick capers will find joy in the clumsy, human-scale fumbling of this endeavor. What lingers after the credits is a warm, amused affection for these underdog dreamers. — MovieFinder Editorial
