Adventure in the middle of nowhere: 16-year-old discovers the world of Africa!

Today, August 17, 2025, it's all about exciting stories and offers that not only provide entertainment, but also practical solutions in everyday life. Especially in Cologne there is news that you don't want to miss.

Let's start with a passion project in film art: A German feature film from 2015 tells the story of 16-year-old Ben, who lives in the middle of nowhere and longs for the adventures that Africa promises. In this moving story, Ben looks after his dementia grandfather Karl, which represents both a challenge and a valuable life experience for him. Alongside Sven Gielnik in the title role, we see Joachim Król as Maslow and Paula Beer as Lena. The film was directed by Kai Wessel, supported by a strong team of musicians and cameramen who brought this story to the screen. ARD Mediathek reports on the emotional depth and exciting twists and turns of the film.

A look behind the scenes

The cast is diverse and brings the characters to life. Klaus A. Müller-Oi plays grandfather Karl, while the other roles are excellently complemented by actors such as Adam Markiewicz and Bernd Tauber. The musical accompaniment by Titus Wolfe and Ralf Wienrich also contributes to the atmosphere of the film.
This extraordinary production is a reminder of the important interpersonal relationships that we sometimes lose sight of in our busy lives.

But there are not only cultural highlights - there is also a lot going on in the field of telecommunications. If you are looking for flexible mobile phone tariffs, you should take a look at the Ben offers. The so-called Sim Only subscriptions ensure price-performance ratios that are impressive. Here you only pay for the use of the mobile network, not for a new phone, which benefits many people.

Flexibility and diversity

The cheapest Sim Only subscription starts at €6.50 per month without internet and €8 with internet. Customizing the bundles is also easy: Can be canceled on a monthly basis, with or without a contract term – the options are diverse. The regular offers with free data volume or no connection costs, which are suitable for every budget, are particularly pleasing.

With new options for the 5G network, you can not only get online quickly, but you can also choose between different internet bundles. Speeds range from 200 Mbps to 300 Mbps, ideal for those who travel a lot and want to use their data quickly. If you change frequently or simply need more flexibility, you can often extend your existing contracts more cheaply than take out new ones.

Overall, Cologne offers both cultural highlights, such as the moving film about Ben and his grandfather, as well as practical solutions for modern telecom needs. Buzz and applause are guaranteed here – there’s really something in the air!
