[edit] Plot
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
Schultze is a large, recently retired salt miner living in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. For years he has played traditional polka music on his accordion, but a series of upheavals in his life inspire an interest in American Zydeco music. Though he speaks little English, he travels to Texas and Louisiana to immerse himself in the music and culture of the Bayou. He subsequently expires after a brief encounter with a kind black family who take him in in, offer him food and drink, and take him to a Zydeco dance hall(Black people).
