Revanche

He's a gofer in Vienna's red-light district; she, one of the whores. They want to start a new life and rob a bank. As they escape, a shot is fired and Tamara dies. Alex sets out to take revenge for his lover's death. "Revanche" goes from the turbulent city to tranquil nature, from summer to autumn, from longing and guilt to the chance for reconciliation.
