(Lola rennt)

Screening on Film
Directed by Tom Tykwer.
With Franka Potente, Moritz Bleibtreu, Nina Petri.
Germany, 1998, 35mm, color, 80 min.
German with English subtitles.

A critical and popular success at home and abroad, Tykwer’s inventive Run, Lola, Run sets a frenetic pace (fueled by the techno-score of Johnny Klimek and Reinhold Heil) as it simultaneously enacts three resolutions to its thriller plot line. Small-time gang courier Manni has misplaced 100,000 DM in a bag and has twenty minutes to find or replace it. Girlfriend Lola comes to his aid, racing through the streets of Berlin as split-second decisions become life altering.
