Laughing Heirs (Lachende Erben) 91 years old

Laughing Heirs

After the death of his uncle, the owner of Bockelmann Champagne, Peter turns up for the reading of the will. Justus Bockelmann, a producer of mineral water, is confident he will inherit the business, but ‘for reasons of moral rectitude’ he has no intention of running an ‘alcoholic business’. The opening of the will comes as a surprise to all the potential heirs.
