This 2004 film is a thriller. It’s about an assassin, played by Joachim Król.  We see his life and the investigation of his work.

Joachim Król is not only a busy actor, but also a very talented one.  We know him from several other films.  In Lola rennt, he was the homeless man, Muff Potter in Tom Sawyer, one of our side characters in Bin ich schön, and he’s also a main character in one of my favorite movies, der bewegte Mann.  He’s been active since 1984 with both movies and TV.

The stupidity/naiveté of Nina, our lead woman, is a little annoying at times.  She follows the assassin around, wondering if they’d be good together, confronts him when she finds out who she is… just… silly.

There is nudity, mostly towards the beginning of the movie.  A man swims in the nude, and there is a sex scene.  It would be difficult to edit or skip, as the scenes come up with little warning, but it doesn’t lend itself well to an educational setting anyway.
