Cowboy
Directed by Till Kleinert
Produced by Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie Berlin (DFFB)
A dark, paranoid rural horror film that traps an outsider in an isolated village where sexual tension and violence converge in a claustrophobic nightmare.
Real estate agent Christian travels the countryside scouting for investment prospects. In a forgotten, seemingly abandoned village far off the main roads, he finds more than he is looking for. Getting entangled in an encounter with a taciturn teenage farmhand, he confronts his sexual frustrations and, in the process, gets drawn into the undergrowth of a bloodthirsty rustic community.
