Jonathan Zimmermann, a German picture-framer, is dying of a rare blood disease. Despite his illness, the happily married Jonathan does his best to live each day to the fullest with his wife and child. But when Tom Ripley, a cunning American gangster, learns of Jonathan`s sickness, he convinces the dying man -- deeply concerned about his family`s financial future -- to work as a hit man for a big payoff. Will Jonathan get in over his head by making a deal that could ruin what`s left of his life? This is a sensitive, film-noirish tribute to the American gangster film by the German Wenders, which is based on the novel Ripley`s Game by Patricia Highsmith. In English and German with English subtitles.
