Black Souls
Synopsis
One night can change lives. One night can make the difference between happiness and unhappiness, between life and death. Jan, a clueless law student, discovers the body of a woman in the park - and the suspected murderer. But Tony asks Jan to give him five minutes to prove his innocence. These five minutes will last all night. At the same time, Jan's girlfriend Christine roams the dark streets looking for him. She meets Jan's mentor, Judge Krauss. The judge offers Christine a lot of money if she sleeps with him - a tempting offer. Just like Jan, Christine begins to discover her dark, hidden self that night. For both of them, it is a night full of mistrust, deception, lust and temptation.
