Das Schwein - Eine deutsche Karriere

The three-part miniseries portrays the rise of the unscrupulous Stefan Stolze. Stefan Stolze gets through life with the motto "smarter than the others." Even as a schoolboy, he supplements his pocket money with tricks and scams. In the 1970s, he initially works as a pimp, but then manages to break into the Berlin real estate business—the first step on his way to the top, on which rich, influential women always play a role, but whom he drops at the right moment.
