Synopsis
STRAIGHT ASIDE portraits eight extraordinary people from upper Bavaria who chose a life beyond the society but still live with us and enrich our lifes. The protagonists are telling about their lively dreams, about their different aims and their personal utopias. They tell about their hurdles on the roads of life, about their ticks and tricks, about their sublimes ideas, about their search for fortune and about the adventure of life. The film conveys that some of these people have a spiritual kinship with the famous Bavarian puppet Kasperl=Punchinello Larifari. And in the film Larifari himself begins to search for his own kind of fortune togehter with his comrades. STRAIGHT ASIDE is an entertaining pleading for diversity, appreciation and tolerance - in the region of Upper Bavaria and elsewhere.
