Die dunkle Seite des Mondes

Deutschland Luxemburg 2014/2015 Spielfilm

The Dark Side of the Moon

Urs Blank's job as a high finance attorney negotiating corporate mergers has made him a prestigious member of society. But a life devoid of all conventions is just a short trip away on hallucinogenic mushrooms. The experience unexpectedly brings his dark side to the fore - and thus calls into question everything Blank previously stood for. The film is an adaptation of Martin Suter's eponymous bestselling book.
