"Das Millionenspiel" ("Million-Game") is a fictional reality-TV show of a fictional private TV-station named "TE-TV".
In the show, Contestant Bernard Lotz is hunted through (western-) Germany for a week by a group of hired killers and has, he and the killers being constantly monitored by 24 camera teams, to reach a series of checkpoints in order to win 1 million German mark (an enormous amount of money - consider the inflation).
In an - for Europe and Germany, where privately owned television stations were not very usual until the 1980's - almost prophetic manner the film draws a picture of a future full of private TV stations and reality-TV-shows competing for market-share.
The film is starring a series of famous German TV moderators and actors and features some bizarre fake-advertisements.
Worth watching.
