A thriller about Brand, the author who falls in love with Angela, his terminally ill wife’s nurse. A vindictive husband, an insistent chief inspector and a proud wife entrap Brand in a maelstrom of persecution, destruction and obliteration which can only end in life or death.

Impeccably stylish, this contemporary Viennese noir from Thomas Roth concerns itself (in an ever-so-self-reflexive twist!) with a novelist’s writer’s block. A coolly suspenseful cat-and-mouse game ensues, and Brand offers up a thrilling production of sex and violence.
