Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Business lawyer Urs Blank is the undisputed star in his field. He is successful and has money and the perfect woman for him. When a business partner kills himself because of his tough negotiating tactics, Urs questions his previous life. He feels drawn to Lucille, who opens a whole new world for him with her alternative lifestyle--and seduces him into a trip on hallucinogenic mushrooms. After the trip come serious consequences: his personality changes and reveals his dark side, and the civilized lawyer becomes and instinct-driven individual--and unpredictable murderer. Deeply insecure about his change, Blank flees into the forest to look for an antidote for the failed mushroom trip. But for his unscrupulous client Pius Ott, the unpredictable Blank has become a ticking time bomb, because it threatens to endanger his biggest merger deal. Urs Blank becomes the hunted, and his struggle to return to civilization becomes a race for his life. Written by ARD Das Erste |
