The film follows the events between a woman, Lola, and her boyfriend, Mani, who she desperately tries to save from death by helping him obtain a huge amount of money he carelessly lost. It takes you on three different journeys with Lola, all controlled by fate, showing you what would happen in each, and all the "what if's" that provide the foundations for each outcome. IMDB

Review:
Great movie!

I haven't seen that many German movies, but this one is a lot of fun! It definitely keeps you on your toes. A well developed plot, likeable characters, and a bit of an adrenaline boost! :)

I didn't really know what to expect, but it was worth the watch!
