Story
Peter Trepper ( Vitus Ceplikal ) is a young man sentenced to ten years for murder. The prison psychologist ( Erica Range ) conducts an interview with him, the purpose of which is to try to find out what motivated Peter to commit such an impulsive crime.
During the interview, it turns out that Peter's childhood was extremely lonely. His parents, the owners of the hotel ( Alexander Allerson and Ernie Mangold ), were overly demanding, and he could never earn their praise. This motivated Peter to have an early marriage with his girlfriend Erica ( Elka Aberle ) and move to Munich, where the situation that began in his parents' house continued: Peter spent a lot of effort to earn praise, especially for his new wife. He worked long shifts at work, and after he carelessly spent all the money he earned - so his wife and I accumulated debts that became a serious stressful factor for Peter himself and led to him losing his job. After being fired in a fit of emotion, Peter abducts, beats and strangles the bartender ( Janos Gönchel ), who reminded him of his father.
