Das As der Asse (1933)
Der ehemalige Kampfflieger Jo Cavalier ist Trainer der französischen Boxmannschaft bei den Olympischen Spielen 1936 in Berlin. Cavalier trägt mit Stolz den Spitznamen “As der Asse”. In Berlin trifft er seinen Ex-Gegner Gunther von Beckmann wieder. Längst schon entstand aus heftigen Luft- und Faustkämpfen eine herzliche Freundschaft. Da begegnet Jo Cavalier einem zehnjährigen jüdischen Jungen, dessen Familie spurlos verschwunden ist. Die beiden Asse riskieren ihr Leben, um sich für die Verfolgten einzusetzen. Unterhaltsame Mischung aus Action und Gags!
