Totò e Peppino divisi a Berlino, internationally released as Toto and Peppino Divided in Berlin, is a 1962 Italian comedy film directed by Giorgio Bianchi.[1][2]
Plot
[edit]Antonio leaves Italy for Berlin to reach Peppino, who works the miserable job of "magliaro". Since he is very poor, Antonio makes a pact with the daughter of former Nazi admiral Attila Canarinis, who is his perfect double, so that in West Berlin he will be tried by the Americans for war crimes. Antonio escapes from jail, but the troubles for him are not finished, because in East Berlin he is mistaken by the Russians for a secret agent, due to a misinterpretation of the Neapolitan book "La smorfia".
