Nichts als die Wahrheit – 30 Jahre Die Toten Hosen

Germany’s most popular punk rock band “Die Toten Hosen” (“The dead pants”) celebrated their 30th anniversary in 2012. In his film “Nichts als die Wahrheit – 30 Jahre Die Toten Hosen” (“Nothing but the truth – 30 years Die Toten Hosen”), established documentary filmmaker Eric Friedler succeeds at presenting an interior view of a band that evolved from an enfant terrible to a pop culture icon and whose work mirrors German history. Friedler takes the audience on a two-hour long roller coaster ride about success and failures.
