PLOT

Oleg, a young Russian-German, seeks the ultimate thrill, playing with his own life. Somewhere west of Volgograd, in an abandoned barracks, a few men meet to shoot at each other with live ammunition, as if in a war situation. The film crew accompanies the boy to the players' camp. A commentary summarizes the events, which are interspersed with statements from the "players." What the viewer does not suspect at first: the documentary turns out to be fake, with which filmmaker Felix Müller wants to make it clear that images do not necessarily reflect reality. The second part, "Spiel mit dem Zuschauer" (Playing with the Viewer), reports very concretely and vividly on this and how easy it is to manipulate images.
