If you loved Meet the Malawas, try Der geschenkte Freund
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by James Huth, and they both carry the outsider, playful mood tags, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Meet the Malawas, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Der geschenkte Freund is
The film presents a luxury department store owner treating a ten-year-old to a one-time-only birthday shopping spree that takes an unexpected turn. The boy picks Samy, the night watchman, as his new toy. It’s a whimsical premise that somehow still forgets these are people.
