This is the summer of their lives and they don't want anybody to ruin it – not even the Nazis! Welcome to Europe in the 1930s, the beginning of National Socialism in Germany, to share a vacation trip with an irreverent author and his wife as they travel to Gripsholm. Based on the novel "Schloss Gripsholm" by Kurt Tucholsky, and directed by Xavier Koller, "Gripsholm" plunges viewers into the pleasure-craving, decadent world of Berlin cabaret at the beginning of the 1930s. Kurt is a German-Jewish publisher, ironic author and, thanks to his risqué chanson lyrics, a celebrated star of the cabaret. Kurt is invited to the Swedish palace of Gripsholm with his girlfriend, Lydia, and their friends for a summer that will change them all forever! (Cinemax)
