The Swing (1983)

movie · 133 min · German · 6.4/10 (IMDb 6.3)

Streaming in Sweden on Netflix.

Based on Annette Kolb’s autobiographical novel of the same name, THE SWING is a lavish, breathless reconstruction of life in Munich towards the end of the 19th century. The deceptively simple story centers around the Lautenschlags, a Bavarian-French Catholic family overflowing with artistry but short on practicalities like financial acumen.

Starring Anja Jaenicke, Lena Stolze, Joachim Bernhard, Susanne Herlet, Christine Kaufmann, Rolf Illig, Marianne Sägebrecht, Irm Hermann.
