German writer and director Christoph Hochhäusler was one of the three directors to take part in a trilogy that takes place in the same location but each dealing with different characters and loosely tied to the others. In the third part, the escaped murderer that haunted the other films comes out of the shadows as he escapes from the police and hides in the forest to survive while being hunted. Hochhäusler uses elements of a psychological thriller for the story of a dangerous man on the loose while given insight to his madness. Stefan Kurt's subtle and nuanced performance of the hunted man is chilling. 1001 Films' coverage of the SFIFF55 (San Francisco International Film Festival).
