But on his 37th birthday everything is about to change, all within a single day. At the mythical Tempelhof park, Berlin's ex-airport, he runs into a mysterious stranger who will make him doubt his life and invite him to open his ears. And from that moment, he will experience the rest of the day with a completely unexpected turn. Christoph Bach (Dutschke, Carlos, Charité) is 'the redeemer from Tempelhof' in Charlotte Roustang's THE SAVIOUR, a midlength parabel about personal doubts, unforeseen twists, and a mysterious encounter at Tempelhof airfield. THE SAVIOUR premiered at the International Hofer Film Days, then had successful festival apperances at the Mumbai Women's International Film Festival, won the Platinum Remi Award at the Houston International Film Festival and was - of course - featured at the achtung Berlin festival.
