Synopsis
Off Course to China (Perdiendo el este, 2019) is a Spanish comedy by Paco Caballero, ready to watch online on iFILM. After his misadventures in Berlin, Braulio drags his friends Rafa and Hakan to Hong Kong, chasing a fresh start and fast money on the far side of the world.
The catch is that none of their Spanish bravado or European habits translate. A language they can't read, rules they don't know, a culture where a smile means nothing like what they assume. Julián López and Miki Esparbé steer the trio through one clumsy disaster after another — deals that collapse, misunderstandings at every turn, schemes that never go as planned. Carmen Machi and Leo Harlem round out this scrappy landing party of lost Europeans.
This is the follow-up to the hit Perdiendo el norte, once again about emigrants hunting success in a place that works by completely different rules. Loud, light and built on jokes about East meeting West. A fine pick for a night when you just want an easy comedy about your own people abroad. Stream Off Course to China (2019) online on iFILM.
