Das Mädchen mit den Feuerzeugen

Germany

Synopsis

The four friends Aga, Ringo, the White Giant and Spasski, each of them in a wheelchair, are bored of the everlasting monotony and decide to celebrate their own "holiday".

They get hold of the collected donations and go on a discovery trip to Munich at night. There, all doors first remain closed for the wheelchair group, but then they meet an angel in the form of a lady selling lighters, who grants them three wishes. None of them takes her seriously - until the first wish actually comes true.
