Gangster

Deutschland 1998/1999 TV-Spielfilm

A love story between Vincent, a petty gangster, and Mona, a policeman′s daughter. During a nocturnal round of poker in the red-light district, Vincent loses his woman to Siggi, a pimp known for his brutal ways.

 

The problem′s not just that Vincent has to come up with 60,000 marks within a few days to stop the pimp from rounding on their flat; the problem is also that Mona mustn′t know of the whole affair because she′s just trying to convince her father, Inspector Kubel, that Vincent has started a new life. It seems as if Vincent is doomed to criminal ways yet again when the pimp unexpectedly turns up with a gangster named Duvall who is wanted for arrest. Siggi, for his part, has to settle some gambling debts and since he is short of cash, he has passed Mona on to the top gangster - who doesn′t make matters less complicated by planning to give the supposed whore to his boss ...
