Benjamin Heisenberg's multi-award-winning film adaptation of Martin Prinz's novel "The Robber": sober and precise, Johann Rettenberger measures heart rate, endurance and effectiveness - during training runs as well as during the bank robberies from which he flees from the police, madly masked and armed with a pump shotgun. Johann lives in Vienna undetected with his girlfriend Erika, moving out again and again, passionate and eager to experience the thrill, the movement and the beauty of the heist, up to three times in one day. When he is discovered, his legs carry him away in the face of a massive police deployment. Someone like him can have no destination: Onward, always onward his escape leads him.
