What happens

Punks Arrives from America (German: Punks kommt aus Amerika) is a 1935 German comedy film directed by Karl Heinz Martin and starring Attila Hörbiger, Lien Deyers, Ralph Arthur Roberts and Sybille Schmitz. Produced and distributed by UFA, it was made at the company's Babelsberg Studios in Potsdam. The film's sets were designed by the art director Otto Guelstorff. Location shooting took place around Hamburg. Along with Fresh Wind from Canada it was one of several seemingly innocuous comedies released that supported the Nazi Party's Heim ins Reich policy.
