Synopsis
In a German city, a hit-man called Walter kills the wrong man. His boss suggests an immediate and prolonged holiday in a remote place. Walter fancies Mexico but instead is sent to protect a gang boss called Berger, who is hiding out in an isolated mountain hotel somewhere in East Europe. On his way he meets another gangster called Micky, who has been hired for the same job. When the two reach the hotel, having had to leave the car in deep snow, the only occupant is Berger's blonde moll Sibylle, who promptly goes off to a party. Snooping around, they find she is a porn model and has her own drug laboratory. When she gets back, high on narcotics and alcohol, she requires sex from Micky, but during the act his gun goes off and kills her. Walter leaves Micky to dispose of her body and car. When Berger arrives with his Russian bodyguard Kazik, he becomes suspicious over Sibylle's continued absence. Unhappy at the evasive answers he gets, he and Kazik submit the two to prolonged torture. This ends when they find the car and corpse that Micky had ineptly concealed. Berger believes it was the locals who had done the deed, being anxious to get rid of him. As he gets increasingly paranoiac about intruders, Kazik ties him up and takes charge. The two Germans have no desire to stay, but when Walter goes to his abandoned car it will not start. Then Micky obtains the keys to Berger's car, but Kazik shoots him dead. After burying Micky, Walter trudges off through the snow and is last seen working as a gardener in a place that looks like Mexico.Cast
