Quote
Possessing impeccable skills in the art of assassination, Victor (Joachim Król), a hit man, carries out one assignment after another with near perfection, while the obsessed police detective Lang (Christian Berkel) doggedly searches for a break in his hunt for the evasive killer. Then, during what would be just another routine hit, Victor jeopardizes his entire career by uncharacteristically falling in love with a woman (Nadja Uhl) -- when one mistake in his line of work can lead to death.
