Die Känguru-Verschwörung (2022). Die Känguru-Verschwörung: Directed by Marc-Uwe Kling, Alexander Berner. With Marc-Uwe Kling, Dimitrij Schaad, Rosalie Thomass, Petra Kleinert. The cabaret artist Marc-Uwe and the kangaroo are faced with a problem: Lisbeth, the mother of Maria has taken a wrong turn somewhere and is now denying the climate crisis on the Internet. How can she be brought to her senses? The two make a bet with each other: If they don't manage to bring Maria's mother to her senses, they will lose their apartment. So Marc-Uwe and the marsupial embark on a trip to the Conspiracy Convention in Bielefeld and shortly thereafter become part of a tangible conspiracy led by conspiracy guru Adam Krieger and his followers. As the two flatmates talk their heads off, it's no longer just about their apartment for Marc-Uwe and the kangaroo, it's more than that: it's a matter of life and death.

“This installment of the kangaroo stories has blown me away. Itu0026#39;s a spot-on, satirical comment on the past years in which covid-19 conspiracy nuts ruled many discussions and sowed so much confusion.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn short, Marc-Uwe and his kangaroo seek out to free Mariau0026#39;s mother from the clutches of her conspiracy theories. On their odyssey, the duo enjoy quite a lot of comical situations – which I will not summarize here.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut let me say that the film contains insider jokes that one can only understand as a German. Though, some refer to the capitol attack on January 6th, 2021. Others relate to covid-19. At one time, they cite a famous phrase from u0026quot;Life of Brianu0026quot; (1979). The very beginning bears resemblance to ALF, the 1980 sitcom.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFrankly, I wonder how they will translate this masterpiece for English-speaking audiences.”
