Werner, Batman, Sailor Moon – the beautifully nerdy documentary series “BÄM!” works through the turbulent history of comics in different countries.
At a spa hotel called the Excelsior, the nasty Fritz, Captain Arrow, Sachiko and the French Amèlie undergo therapeutic measures. Why? They are all failed comic book heroes. Under the supervision of Mrs. Dr. Seiffert, they not only work through their own failures, but also the complex history of the origins of comics in Germany, the USA, Belgium, France and Japan.
