Peter Pewas

Futuristic view of life in Pankow, East Berlin. The GDR has turned into a madhouse with serious economic problems.

Based on court records, this award-winning documentary feature film directed by Peter Pewas reconstructs a traffic accident in Essen in which three people were directly involved and in which twelve-year-old cyclist Dieter Pahl was killed.

High school student Fabian König is kicked out of school and starts a gang that specializes in theft. He falls in love with the orphan girl Ulla, but she rejects him when she finds out how he spends his time. When the pimp Horst tries to rape Ulla, she is rescued by Fabian. Shortly afterwards, Horst's body is found and Fabian is convicted of the murder due to the false testimony of a witness. In prison, he comes to trust the prison doctor Dr. Knittel, who believes him and is able to unmask the real culprit.

Attempted murder told from three perspectives: that of the offender, the (prospective) victim and the investigating officer.

This film tells the unusually sensitive story of two women who try to cope with men, one a pragmatic gold digger type, not unsympathetic though, the other a dreamer who falls in love with a man in a magic moment ... or so she thinks.
