Wedding fever in Campobello

Organizing a wedding is never easy, but for the Marcipane family it can become an impossible mission. When Antonio Marcipane (Lino Banfi), a Southern Italian emigrated to Germany in the 60’s, finds out that his beloved daughter Sara (Mina Tander) is in love with Jan, a German boy (Christian Ulmen), he almost faints. Antonio accepts the two of them to get married only if the wedding will take place in the small Italian town he comes from. All the Germans embark in what will become an adventure…

The film is based on the best-seller “Maria, ihm schmeckt’s nicht!” by Jan Weiler, which sold over one and a half million copies in Germany
