About Alphamann: Amok
Blind psychologist Tom Leschek accidentally witnesses a heavily armed SEK policeman running amok and barricading himself in a supermarket with his daughter. The policeman's ex-wife was supposed to take the girl by court order that day. Leschek uses his cell phone to get in touch with the police, who use the blind man as a mediator and advisor in this emergency situation.
Directed by Thomas Jauch, Alphamann: Amok leans on a strong ensemble — Hannes Jaenicke, Renée Soutendijk, André Hennicke — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1999.
