Hurra - Die Schwedinnen sind da (1978)

Niki Moser borrowed 400,000 marks from the mayor in exchange for promising to marry his daughter, Marianne. But the Alpine fitness hotel he bought at auction with the money remains without guests. Niki and Marianne like each other, but neither of them wants to get married. Niki looks for a way to pay the money back. His friend Toni tells him about government grants, and Niki writes to Ministerialrat Wiesinger, but for a long time gets no reply. In a phone call, Niki is delighted to learn that he will not have to repay the grant, and that the only condition is that the hotel be fully occupied. Toni brings a group of young Swedish women who are hitchhiking to the hotel. They are happy to get free accommodation instead of staying in youth hostels as they had been doing. Marianne arranges for a men's brass band to check in. Before long, couples form and enjoy themselves together. The bandleader and Marianne do too, which infuriates Niki, who had until then been her platonic friend; he is beginning to realise just how desirable Marianne really is. Meanwhile, Ministerialrat Wiesinger arrives with his companion, Iris, to inspect the hotel, but bad luck follows him: first, a romantic interlude with Iris among the cows in a meadow proves to be a bad idea when one of them unloads its bowels onto his face. Then two new arrivals who have escaped from the nearby Dr. Wirr mental hospital, Max and Franz, steal Wiesinger’s convertible and his and Iris’s clothes. As a result, Franz is mistaken for Wiesinger, while Wiesinger and Iris are mistaken for the escapees and hunted. Eventually, the confusion is cleared up, but Wiesinger exposes the scam involving the hotel’s purported guests, who are not paying, and refuses to pay the grant to the hotel, which strikes him as an erotic club. Even so, Niki, who has by now spotted a business opportunity, offers to pay the money back to the mayor, but the mayor refuses. Niki and Marianne become a couple regardless. Wiesinger, however, gets into a predicament when his wife suddenly turns up; Wiesinger’s jealous secretary has told her that his trip was not solely for official business. He gets rid of his wife temporarily by pushing her into the swimming pool.
