Verschwende Deine Jugend<br />

PLAY IT LOUD!<br />

Everything is cool: the neon-colored dresses, the<br />

cheeky looks and most of all – the music. It’s the<br />

1980s and New Wave Music roller-coasters its way<br />

across Europe. And Harry, 19, wants to be part of it.<br />

Nobody would call his job as a bank clerk ”cool“, but<br />

his friends certainly are. Vince, Melitta and Freddie are<br />

musicians – managing their band ”Apollo Schwabing“<br />

is supposed to be Harry’s stairway to his dreams.<br />

But becoming a successful ”cool“ music manager is<br />

not easy at all – soon Harry is confronted with a total<br />

disaster – losing his girlfriend, losing his job, and losing<br />

his friendship with the ”Apollos“ … In this hilarious<br />

coming-of-age-comedy, Harry learns that putting<br />

everything at risk is the only way to win: Play it<br />

Loud! – waste your youth and have fun doing it!<br />
