Eine schwindelige Bundestags-Revue

You don't need to be a political expert to know that the real madness of the state takes place in secret. Political decisions are not made by the people's representatives in the glare of the headlines. They do it among themselves, where no one disturbs them: in the back room of power.


And the DISTEL is there. In a grotesque revue, the illustrious Bundestag staff rushes from left to right, making you dizzy. New parliamentarians duel with old fogies, ghostwriters dance with ushers, horse-trading here, espionage there, and in the middle of it all, the first Bundestag debate poetry slam.

A turbulent panopticon with guest appearances by Robert Habeck, Christian Lindner, Alice Weidel, Friedrich Merz, the ghost of Helmut Kohl and many more.

Finally, a look through the keyhole into the backroom of power. How does it really work in the Bundestag? Is it corrupt? Is it amateurish? Is it convoluted, cumbersome, still equipped with fax machines? Yes, all that - but it is still one of the funniest parliaments we know.
