FISCH FÜR DIE GEISEL

FISH FOR THE HOSTAGE

It was meant to be a small break-in and Piet was only meant to be the driver. “We just crack the safe to pay off Dad’s debts and off we go. Pretty easy!,” Piet’s brother Herm said. But as Herm takes a hostage and directs Piet into a vacant house on the outskirts, Piet enters the hardest challenge of his life: He finds himself being a kidnapper and trapped in between his hardliner brother, his own humanity and the person behind the hostage: Konstantin.
