Hitler in Stalin's Russia in comedy Hotel Lux

Lets go back to the year before the second world war kicked off and what if Hitler fleed to Stalin's Russia the war probably wouldn't have happened or some other crazier psychopath would have taken over, however Hitler did flee to Russia in Leander Haußmann's HOTEL LUX.

Hotel Lux is a comedy based in 1938 about a German stage/screen comedian who is trying to flee soon to be war torn Germany for America but he couldn't get the correct paper sees him flee to all places Russia! If your a fan of OSS117 films and even The Artist you will certainly like this polished classy looking movie which will be released in Germany next month on October 27th, check out the trailer below:



In 1938, Hans Zeisig, an apolitical comedian, impersonator and cabaret actor, flees with a Russian passport (instead of an American one which he would have preferred) from Nazi Berlin, and finds himself in the legendary Hotel Lux, the 'lost paradise' of the Comintern in Moscow. Everyone believes that Zeisig is a man named Hansen, Hitler's personal astrologer. But Zeisig quickly realizes that he's gone from the frying pan into the fire. In the Hotel Lux, he meets up again with his friends Frida and former stage partner Meyer, who are still passionate communists. For the three idealists, an adventure between love and death begins to run its course!
