Halberstadt, summer 1990: a group of clever East Germans seizes the chaotic post-GDR era to retrieve hidden millions from an underground vault. As they outsmart formidable opponents, the heist takes an unexpected turn when money officially unrecognized in the GDR circulates and they have six days to exchange their old currency for new Deutschmarks as part of Germany’s reunification effort. Directed by Natja Brunckhorst and featuring Academy Award-nominated Sandra Hüller (‘Anatomy of a Fall,’ ‘Toni Erdmann’), alongside Max Riemelt (‘Sense 8’) and Ronald Zehrfeld (‘Barbara,’ ‘Phoenix’), this historical comedy is based on a true story.
