The newspaper TAZ characterized KEBAB CONNECTION as ”the best Fatih-Akin-Comedy…, which Fatih Akin has not shot himself” and praises the excellent actors, even those in minor roles. This iconic culture clash-comedy is the German answer to the international films KICK IT LIKE BECKHAM and MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING (both 2002). Screwball comedy between kebab and gyros in the middle of the trendy Hamburg ”Schanzenviertel” district. Ibo, creative and chaotic Hamburg Turk and downright admirer of Bruce Lee wants to shoot the first German kung-fu film. He gets entangled deeply in his private life and his Turkish family and so has to choose between love or family ties.
