As an Aside / Klammer auf, Klammer zu (1966) Hellmuth Costard

It’s 1966 in Hamburg. Young Ole Braum wants to leave West Germany after the 1965 general elections. He hitchhikes, and is picked up by a young woman driving a Jaguar, but barely makes it to the Lüneburg Heath.  Director Hellmuth Costard combines elements of the nouvelle vague and genre film to create a smart, informal road movie that breaks away from audience expectations.
