Zum Sterben zu früh (2015)
A night-time chase. The dealers in their off-road vehicle are sweating bullets, because Diller and Kessel have them in their sights. A routine operation for the well-rehearsed duo, long-time friends who have always had each other's backs. And at the moment, Kessel is in dire need of Diller's support: his daughter suffers from severe epilepsy, her treatment is expensive and his marriage is in danger of falling apart. But Kessel knows he can rely on Diller and he loves his wife. So he is sure that everything will be fine. And suddenly an opportunity arises to help fate along: With a bag full of drugs, which Kessel discovers in the car of the fugitive dealers. Kessel hesitates only briefly and then lets them go. But instead of solving his problems, this bag plunges him into new, far greater conflicts - and takes his partner Diller and his family with him.
