Toni Schatz is the James Bond among haircutters: he's got the license to cut and the quickest blade since the Three Musketeers. But then the inevitable happens: Toni falls in love, and nothing will ever be same...
"Wow, who would've guessed? Guildo Horn's first feature is more than screwball. WASCHEN, SCHNEIDEN, LEGEN turns out to be a charming little comedy, surprising us with its ravishing love story. Coiffeur Guildo Horn and flower vendor Susanne Simon have been best buddies until they take a coach to Berlin and - like in WHEN HARRY MET SALLY - find their love for each other." - (Express)
One and a half years after saving German Schlager music at the European Song Contest, media phenomenon Guildo Horn comes back to rescue the German cinema. Supported by a celebrity cast (Sissi Perlinger, Ulrich Wildgruber, a.o.) and experienced director Adolf Winkelmann, he proves: "Hair is the way to a woman's heart."
A co-production with Warner Bros., funded by Filmstiftung NRW.
