The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。一群摩托手正在去戴通纳的路上，他们要去比赛，并且了结一些恩怨。然而，路上出了一些状况......。《当代怀疑论者》杂志社的资深编辑汉克（安东尼·爱德华兹 Anthony Edwards 饰）是个酷爱冒险的人，二十年来一直在追踪各种不同寻常的线索，曝光真相，揭露阴谋。汉克年轻美貌的妻子莱拉（杰茜达·芭瑞特 Jacinda Barrett 饰）从地摊上购买的一块古董后竟然离奇从工作的古董钟表店被人绑架。凶徒文森特以莱拉的性命作要挟，要求汉克交出古董钟。汉克拆卸古董钟表后，意外发现藏在其中的一张藏宝地图。然而这张藏宝图不能给人带来财富，而是指引着一个巨大的灾难。现在只有汉克能破译图上的古怪符号并找出隐藏在其中的秘密，确保这些信息不落入坏人之手。在年轻同事及一名性感的FBI女探员（卡门·艾乔戈 Carmen Ejogo 饰）的帮助下，汉克将竭尽全力找到自己的妻子，并追查实情的真相……。
