REVANCHE

R: Götz Spielmann

Prostitute Tamara and Alex, a brothel boss's henchman, are united by their secret love and their desire to escape this miserable life. A bank robbery is supposed to help them find happiness. REVANCHE is a story of guilt and revenge, set between the underworld and country life. Götz Spielmann intertwines the threads between the hunter and the hunted in such a way that the subtle balance of power could tip at any time. Despite all the conflicts and painful things he tells about, there is a fundamental optimism behind it - namely the conviction that life is not a mistake.
