Countdown

Crazy and fucked up! A bizarre Berlin kaleidoscope of explosive sex and off-the-wall ideas. Franco Potente is running through Berlin. He has only two hours to fuck Thom Barron. But in the sluttiest city in the world, new sex adventures are waiting around every corner! Masturbating hotdog vendors, razor-sharp hairdo's, fucking cellar punks, turned on gallery visitors, and a strip bar teeming with sex-crazed black men keeps him from reaching his goal. First, he falls into the trap of a sex psychopath, then he runs into a group of nasty skinheads. Every minute he is experiencing one Berlin sex revelation after the other. At the end, he is even run over by a taxi on the the way to the toilet. When he finally meets up with his dream man Thom, his time is already up – but what happens then is a dream come true anyway!

Directed by Sven Jungbluth, Countdown leans on a strong ensemble — Thom Barron, Franco Potente, Wolff — 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 screen titles of 2004.
