Film Synopsis

Tom Tykwer directed this German thriller in which Manni (Moritz Bleibtreu) handled a smuggling job, delivered the loot, collected the payment, left the bag on the subway, and now has 20 minutes to gather 100,000 deutsche marks or confront the wrath of his boss, local criminal Ronnie (Heino Ferch). Desperate, Manni phones his girlfriend Lola (Franka Potente) who immediately runs downstairs and through Berlin streets to the bank run by her father (Herbert Knaup).

Tagline

Jeden Tag, jede Sekunde triffst Du eine Entscheidung, die Dein Leben verändern kann. (English translation: Every second of every day you're faced with a decision that can change your life.) Es sind die kurzen Augenblicke, die über Leben oder Tod entscheiden können... (English translation: The difference between life or death can be decided in a split second.)

 

Memorable Quotes

Manni: What if I were in a coma, and the doc says, "One more day?" Lola: I'd throw you into the ocean... Shock therapy.

[flashback to conversation between Lola and Manni] Lola: Manni - you're not dead yet. [cuts back to Manni dying on the road after being run over by an ambulance] Manni: I'm not?

[first lines] [subtitled version] Narrator: Mankind, probably the most mysterious species on our planet. A mystery of open questions. Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? How do we know what we believe to know? Why do we believe anything at all? Innumerable questions looking for an answer, an answer which will raise the next question and the following answer will raise a following question and so on and so forth. But in the end, isn't it always the same question and always the same answer?
