[citation needed] The film was written and directed by Stefan Prehn and Jörg Wagner and stars Konstantin Graudus as the title role of Klaus.

[citation needed] The film received several awards and was made available on DVD by Anolis Entertainment in 2003, dubbed in English, French, and Spanish.

The film highlights, in a gory manner, the dangers of unsafe operation of machinery, as well as inattention as a result of chitchatting and distraction by a female coworker passing by.

As the film progresses the injuries/deaths become more brutal, beginning with things like a man falling from the forklift after he was lifted on a bare wooden platform rather than in a safety cage, and closing with the most violent: ending in a stray chainsaw being driven around by a severed arm on the floor, reaching and ripping through a man who had already been cut in half waist-down due to Klaus' previous accident.

The warehouse's alarm bell ends up falling from its mount due to corrosion from blood stains and lands on a head as apparent from a screaming sound.
