Winner of the Silver Bear at this year’s Berlin Film Festival, this exciting romantic thriller is a towering cinematic achievement that is sure to leave you breathless. Victoria is a young Spanish student living in Berlin that is looking for a little adventure,
but one evening she gets more than she bargained for. She meets four locals outside a nightclub including the charismatic Sonne who promises to show her a good time and the real side of Berlin. It’s soon clear they have bigger plans than stealing beers and trespassing on rooftops when she finds out a bank robbery is next on the agenda. As dawn approaches, Victoria and Sonne address the inevitable: it’s all or nothing and they abandon themselves to a heart-stopping race into the depths of hell. (TIFF)
