- Plot: Dance of the Cookoos is merged a cinematic cross section with the high points from almost 100 works of the Komikerduos Laurel & Hardy, into an original framework action: As a boss of the starlit sky the gentleman God before the heavy decision stands whether it is to take up Laurel & Hardy as new constellation to the sky. Eagerly Petrus pleads for the two Komiker and refers to their cinematic work, which brought millions humans to the laughter. And expert he quotes projecting SAM from almost all 106 films, which turned the two together. Thus Petrus piece for piece works itself forward, supplies affectionate Portraits of the two, describes the stoische peace, with which they bear the adversities of the life, analyzes its relations with women, marriage, children, occupation, nothing doing, honour and all remaining, which in its films the target of their humor became. The gentleman God at the end cannot resist this restless conviction work, and at the Firmament a new constellation appears: Laurel & Hardy.
