A relentless, high-octane thriller built on escalating paranoia and time pressure, where a father's desperation to protect his children drives a breakneck chase through Berlin.

When a mysterious caller plants a bomb under his car seat, a bank executive begins a high-speed chase across the city to complete a specific series of tasks — all with his kids trapped in the back seat.
