N2  - From case cover:
Ete and Ali, an incongruous and inseparable pair, are fresh out of the army. Neither one knows what to do next. Ali, who does not want to return to his lackluster life, decides to help Ete win back his unfaithful wife...
Peter Kahane's feature film debut—a comedy reminiscent of Woody Allen—is absolutely typical of the GDR, yet it does not have a quintessential Happy Ending, in which the heroes walk away into the sunset. Instead, Ete and Ali drive off in a truck across the dirt road of an East German province—a road movie with a melancholic twist
