Der Schuh des Manitu & Das Kanu des Manitu

At this movie night, we'll be showing both films back-to-back. There will be a short break in between so you can grab some drinks and snacks.

Manitu’s Shoe

1 hr 27 min / Comedy, Western / Rated 6 and up / July 19, 2001
Director: Michael Bully Herbig
Screenplay: Michael Bully Herbig, Alfons Biedermann
Cast: Michael Bully Herbig, Christian Tramitz, Sky Du Mont

If you owe money to the Schoschonen, you’d better settle your debt quickly. That’s a lesson the Apache chief Abahachi (Michael “Bully” Herbig) and his blood brother Ranger (Christian Tramitz) have to learn after borrowing gold from the Native Americans to turn a saloon into a regular hangout for social Native American evenings. But then the archvillain Santa Maria (Sky Du Mont) swindles them. The gold is gone, and the Apache pub is now a dilapidated wreck. To make matters worse, Santa Maria also shoots “Falscher Hase,” the Shoshone chief’s son, and pins the crime on Abahachi and Ranger. The blood brothers end up on the torture stake. Their only remaining chance: Abahachi knows of a hidden treasure. Unfortunately, Abahachi has only one of the four pieces of the treasure map. The other pieces are in the possession of his gay twin brother Winnetouch (Herbig in a dual role), the Greek Dimitri (Rick Kavanian), and the bar singer Uschi (Marie Bäumer)...

Manitu’s Canoe

1 hr 28 min / Comedy, Adventure / Rated 6 and up / August 14, 2025
Director: Michael Bully Herbig
Screenplay: Michael Bully Herbig
Cast: Michael Bully Herbig, Christian Tramitz, Rick Kavanian

You certainly can’t say that Apache Chief Abahachi (Michael “Bully” Herbig) and his white blood brother Ranger (Christian Tramitz) ever get bored. Above all, the new gang in the area keeps stirring up trouble—and before long, the two unlikely brothers find themselves right in the thick of it. The gang has set its sights on the legendary “Manitu’s Canoe” and sets a trap for the two men. As a result, the two blood brothers find themselves at the gallows. An old friend—Dimitri (Rick Kavanian)—finally comes to their rescue. The eccentric Greek and his colleague Mary (Jasmin Schwiers) manage to save Abahachi and Ranger from the worst at the last second. But of course, that was only half the battle, because the gang is naturally still up to no good, and the adventure of the four unlikely friends is just really getting started...
Sequel to the 2001 cult film “Der Schuh des Manitu.” (Source: filmstarts.de)
