Roxy

Deutschland Zypern Belgien 2021/2022 Spielfilm

40something taxi-driver Thomas Brenner experiences few surprises in his mundane day-to-day life and, ideally, would like to be invisible to the world around him. However, one day, a Russian gang and their bulldog "Roxy" get into his taxi. Igor, the boss, is a shady mobster on the run. Initially, Thomas joins the gang for the money and the excitement, but when he meets Aziza, Igor’s attractive wife, and their young son, Vova, his motives change. It‘s not just about the money now. He falls in love with Aziza and becomes a father figure to young Vova. Thomas finds himself caught up in an ever deepening spiral of lies, friendship, love and loyalty and gradually develops skills he didn‘t think were possible...
