The Million Dollar Bet
Inspired by true events, director Thomas Woschitz (UNIVERSALOVE, Bad Luck, etc.) presents a wonderfully bold and characteristically multi-faceted take on the indie genre with an American cast. He masterfully blends universally relevant stories – positioned between the imperative “Pure reason must never win” and the question “What's worth living for?”. The answers sometimes come at a steep cost. However, betting debts are often debts of honour. (Sebastian Höglinger)
