Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run)
Saw this movie at the German Cultural Centre, Goethe Centrum, Trivandrum during the Annual German Film Festival last month. It is a crime thriller film starring Franka Potente as Lola.
The story follows young Lola who needed to obtain 100,000 German marks in 20 minutes to save her boyfriend's life.
The main part of the film is divided into three "runs". Each run starts from the same situation but develops differently and has a different outcome. Each run contains various flash-forward sequences, showing how the lives of the people that Lola bumps into develop after the encounter. In each run, those people are affected in different ways.
These three different "runs" make this film a versatile thriller. Many congratulations to the director Tom Tykwer for presenting this movie in a mind blowing style.
