Lola answers a call from her boyfriend Manni, a small-time courier for a big-time gangster. He has a problem - his boss is coming to pick up 100,000 Deutsche Marks in twenty minutes, but he doesn't have the money. With Manni's life on the line, Lola runs through the streets of Berlin to reach him and somehow pick up 100,000 marks along the way, making split-second decisions and encountering acquaintances, family, and strangers. As the clock ticks down, the tiniest choices become life-altering (or life-ending), and the fine line between fate and fortune begins to blur. Join Brian Raftery, author of Best. Movie. Year. Ever.: How 1999 Blew Up the Big Screen, for a lecture and discussion of his book and the films in the accompanying series 1999: A Most Original Year. Following the lecture, there will be a book signing with copies for sale at The Museum Store. $8.
