Asphaltgorillas (2018) [GERMAN]

Atris works as a drug dealer for the Berlin gangster boss El Keitar. By chance, he meets his childhood friend Frank at night, whose glamorous appearance makes a strong impression on Atris, who does not know that it is just a facade of Frank’s imposture. Frank offers Atris a chance to finally free himself from his (small) criminal environment by helping him with a large-scale counterfeit deal he wants to withdraw with the Triads. At the same time, Atris meets the shoplifter Marie, who moves confidently and fearlessly in Atri’s macho “Gorilla” world of life and whose patriarchal power structure does not follow. Atris decides to stand by her side and break away from El Keitar. He agrees to participate in Frank’s counterfeit deal as a messenger in order to travel with his promised share with Marie to Tokyo.
