Synopsis

At the break of dawn in a quiet Hamburg suburb, seasoned criminals Hans Georg Pauler and Ulrich Raffcyk execute a daring raid on a modest savings bank. As the clock strikes eight, chaos erupts, and bank employees Anna Klages and Kirstin Bauer find themselves in the unsettling grip of these audacious robbers. Outside, the tension escalates as an army of police and throngs of eager reporters descend upon the scene, their eyes fixed on the unfolding drama. In a shrewd twist, Pauler and Raffcyk wield the power of public spectacle, leveraging media frenzy to their advantage. Their demands are clear: half a million marks and a swift escape vehicle. With Pauler's notorious past revealed, the authorities have no choice but to comply. After a tense fourteen-hour standoff, the duo emerges, unchallenged, clutching their ill-gotten gains. Fueled by beer and adrenaline, they embark on a treacherous journey toward Münster, where Raffcyk's brother awaits—a perilous odyssey with the lives of two hostages hanging in the balance.
