Der freie Wille/ The free will

Theo (Juergen Vogel) had brutally raped girls in the past. He came to prison and after he wants to change his life. He wants to prove that you can change yourself even if you started in the wrong way. But he got this appetite that´s getting worse. Then Theo meets Nettie (Sabine Timoteo) and falls for her. A fragile relationship developes. Nettie is his chance. But Theo cant´t repress his inner appetite. He splits with Nettie and tells her everything. She wants to find out about him and instead of going to the police she follows him in secret. Not a movie for sensitive minds. There are some really brutal scences and it is quite depressing to see how much of a free will we seem to have, even though in the end Theo proves that he has it by making suicide. This movie isn´t showing black and white point of views. The viewer is confronted with Theo as the evil-doer and as the victim at the same time. Nettie confronts herself with one of Theos victims and still she is disrupted. Sabine Timoteo plays this role just brilliant. It is a very hard topic and it´s concentrated in this movie in a way that the viewer is left with an hundreds of quesitons. Absolutely worth watching.
