EDITH BALLANTYNE & THE PEACE WOMEN THE WOODCHUCK HUNT

MENSCH BLATTER!

development / Fiction

The disgraced social security detective Rico Blatter travels to Thailand to convict the suspected social security fraudster „Jesus in the Wheelchair“ in order to rehabilitate his reputation. When his kleptomaniac mother secretly follows him, the situation escalates completely.

The ambitious social detective Rico Blatter has gone too far: He secretly filmed how an allegedly blind music teacher was watching porn in his bedroom and Blatter was subsequently released from his job. When a suspected social security fraudster in Thailand jumps out of his wheelchair to save a child from certain death, the discussion about social security in Switzerland is reanimated. Although Blatter has an absolute fear of foreign cultures, he takes his heart in both hands, takes a short-term vacation and travels on his own to Phuket to uncover the case and thus regain his honour as a detective. His presence is not welcome on the island and the alleged pensioners, with the help of their wives, put him on the wrong track. Unexpectedly, his kleptomaniac mother, who has followed him to the vacation paradise at his expense, shows up and wants to investigate with him.
