Girl you know it's true
Biopic/drama/music, D, 2023, 124 min, FSK 12
Music producer Frank Farian (Matthias Schweighöfer) is working on his latest stroke of genius. To this end, he hires the hitherto completely unknown and largely undescribed dancers Rob Pilatus (Tijan Njie) from Germany and Fab Morvan (Elan Ben Ali) from France. Farian forms the pop duo Milli Vanilli from these two talents - and the plan works. No ascent to the highest heights of the international charts seems too steep for Rob and Fab. In the USA alone, they reach the top spot three times. They even take home the most important award in the music industry, the Grammy. But one big secret hovers over them like the sword of Damocles the whole time: Rob and Fab never sang for a second themselves, but simply moved their lips to the singing of others and looked good doing it. When this truth comes to light, the duo are practically shot down. Only the real masterminds around Frank Farian secretly steal away. (filmstars.de)
