The tragicomedy “Oh Boy!” is a self-ironic portrait of a young man who drops out of university and ends up wandering the streets of the city he lives: Berlin.

Black and white, tragic and funny, Oh Boy! is a winning debut from director Jan Ole Gerster and was released on November 1, 2012 in German cinemas. It stars Tom Schilling in the lead whose character Niko’s thought are for example as follows: “Do you know that feeling, that people around you seem to you to be strange? And the longer you think about it the clearer it becomes that not the people, but you yourself are the problem?”
