Fast 40 and apparently has not achieved in life - this can be quite frustrating. Aged three childhood friends whose Berlin Brothers boy band for ten years has not broken through, plan the ultimate coup. Front man John Frederik Selinger called in to John F. Salinger, puts on sunglasses and cowboy hat, by faking his sideburns and hair glued flies to New York with his buddies. The recipe for his way to fame, Salinger announced to die and can prove to amputate the little finger of his left hand. The media will accompany the trip to LA and to death. But this bite at first, as the trio takes more drastic methods.
It is a moment full of bite and irony in Short Cut to Hollywood . Inspired by his anesthesia, his finger is removed surgically, especially in close-up, switched on the TV in the John F. Salinger operation caravan loudly. You can see Mark Medlock and Dieter Bohlen, singing: "You can get it if you really try." The cinematic and musical quotation, as it is called later in the title is a slap on the industry-media dream factory that plays with the desires of their consumers, just like the entire film by Jan Henrik Stahlberg and Mark Mitter Meier, who together already Muxmäuschenstill turned. The infinite will and individual struggle for fame and attention makes people stop at nothing - while directors tears of joy in the eyes. The human tragedy is selling wonderfully.
Salinger and his friends are soon going to realize that it is not enough to cut off a finger, to be included in the mechanism. Only another failed and a highly successful blast effect is later paved the way forward, from which there is indeed no escape. The task of self-determination is the price for selling his soul. But man is a complicated creature that is too often too much be guided by the feelings of the game and unable to understand that temporary emotions are temporary. For the world-weary John F. Salinger, the problem for the moment in which he sees the smile of any beauty and love. A smile that is only given to him because he is the one to which he has brought it.
With a small budget, but self-determined, Stahlberg and Mitter Meier Short Cut to Hollywood filmed in the U.S., the Mecca of the (American) Dream converter. Before the start of their film in Germany, they managed a revealing publicity stunt, which ennobled their work. They brought the message of a suicide bombing in the California Town Bluewater in circulation and thus fooled agencies and media for which a clean search and review all the facts are subordinate to the goal of having the message first. Welcome to reality.
