In 1989, Deutsche Bank spokesman Alfred Herrhausen was killed by a car bomb. The main suspect was a well-known militant leftist, Wolfgang "Gaks" Grams, who had gone into hiding earlier in the decade to evade arrest and killed himself before he could be arrested and tried. This documentary interviews friends, family and work associates of both men to investigate whether Grams, upset with the Deustche Bank's involvement in arms dealing and Third World debt, helped to kill Herrhausen.

Hermione G Aug 3, 2018 An uninteresting and frustratingly dull documentary that makes us want to know more about what motivated Wolfgang Grams but keeps forcing us to see and hear endless people talk about his and Alfred Herrhausen's lives like two very superficial biographies thrown together.
