South Africa

Mage-expire sa 8 years

Impormasyon

Robust family comedy with a fair amount of slapstick and comedic action.

Two German families travel to African to witness their children get married. They inadvertently run into trouble
when their bush plane is piloted by an Afrikaans Preacher who is apparently dealing stolen diamonds. When he
gets shot in a hand over, they are left to their own devices. They are hunted by poachers who are convinced that they now have the diamonds, and their fraught trek through the bush to find their children and get to safety, reveals much about their seemingly perfect marriages. Whilst the parents are fending off the great outdoors, Chiara and Jochen, the newly engaged couple, are battling to get their perfect wedding arranged in such a way thatit will be worthy of their elaborate travel blog.

NB Most of the characters will be engaged in some quite physical, comedic action (not quite Schuster but in that vein!)
