Missed It By This Much
A must see. (But only in German with subtitles) A beautiful young woman (Potente) must save her boyfriend from thugs by coming up with 100,000 dollars. The catcher of this one is the movie is divided into thirds. It shows her being a few seconds ahead, a few behind and on time and how just a second or two can affect a persons whole life. The pace is exhausting and the techno is thumping as you are submersed in a world of multi-angle camera shots, animation and dazzling editing. Following Potente through 20 minutes (x3) of her world is sheer exhilaration.
