00:00These two gentlemen are the most famous civil servants of the nation in 1978.

00:07Valor Ljönd and Emil Steinberger.

00:09The film breaks all records.

00:11Almost a million viewers storm the cinemas.

00:14...were formed in the back, as ch, ch, chugge.

00:17Chug, chugge.

00:20The foreigner should therefore also understand

00:23that in our country, so to speak, every area of life, by any law,

00:28The Swiss maker of Rolf Lissi shows the difficult way to the coveted red passport.

00:34May I offer you something to drink? I have beer.

00:37Thank you. On Tuesday I don't drink alcohol.

00:40And a mineral water?

00:42Yes, why not?

00:43You too.

00:45Would you please bring your school supplies and savings book?

00:48What? Sorry?

00:50Your school supplies and savings book.

00:51You certainly have a savings book, don't you?

00:54Yes, of course.

00:55...if it doesn't last any longer than necessary.

00:58Your last illness?

01:00Excuse me?

01:01I mean, when did you have your last contagious illness?

01:05That was...

01:08This film just worked.

01:10It was the right topic at the right time.

01:13And my friend Rolf Lissi did an excellent job.

01:17Of course with Emil Steinberger and Valor Ljönd in the lead role.

01:21Absolutely optimal.

01:24And just like Casablanca in the film,

01:26where Ingrid Bergmo worked,

01:28you can watch it many times and have the feeling that everything is right.

01:32It's exactly the same here at Schweizer Macher.

01:34Of course, finally one of these again.

01:37Again, I really had to laugh.

01:40But only because the situations are so beautiful.

01:42They didn't include poems, but the situations are so beautiful,

01:45so absurd and funny.

01:46And also top current, you could still do it today.

01:48With the same topics.

01:49It's a brilliant material,

01:51which still has the same importance today as it did then.

01:54And I think partly still runs like it did then.

01:59Better than no ice cream.

02:02Well then.

02:05Please report yourself, Mr. Vogtner, if you have more evidence.

02:08I know what to do, Ms. Vakulic.

02:10By the way, it's not worth lying.

02:12What do you mean?

02:14For Ms. Vakulic,

02:15tell your girlfriend,

02:16you don't have to hide for the first time.

02:24That I was allowed to look at Emil in the foam bath,

02:32is still special.

02:37More than three decades after its premiere,

02:39Schweizer Macher is still the most successful Swiss film of all time.

02:44Now the coffee is cold.
