The Robber

Johann Rettenberger (Andreas Lust) is a champion marathoner in Vienna who also robs banks, sometimes as many as three times in a day, running from the police the way he runs a race. Benjamin Heisenberg, working from Martin Prinz's novel, follows his days of heists and training with the same tight pace. Both are ways of staying ahead of the police and his own stillness, and for Johann, stopping is the one thing he cannot bear.
