Spiel um dein Leben
5.8
A taxi driver obsessed with video games becomes the victim of a mugging that temporarily changes his life. Soon after, he meets an attractive woman, but his brief happiness comes to an end when he appears to strangle her during lovemaking. The helpful sister of the supposedly dead woman and a jealous lover add to the chaos that the man is now trying to make sense of.
