Stroszek

Directed by Werner Herzog

With Bruno S., Eva Mattes, Clemens Scheitz, Wilhelm von Homburg and Burkhard Driest

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.
