Crooks(2024)

Crooks moves quickly through heists, chases, and violent confrontations, with Berlin providing the setting for a crime thriller that mixes danger with dark comedy. Rather than separate capers, the episodes carry one continuous story through reversals and close escapes. Desperate decisions keep sending the action in new directions, while the humor gives the chaos a sharp, offbeat edge.

Charly and Joseph’s mismatched partnership brings laughs and loyalty to the scramble to stay alive. Their uneasy shared predicament runs alongside a more intimate pressure: Charly’s wife and son are endangered too. Family trust becomes a practical necessity on the run, with the husband, wife, and child having to rely on one another while the threat follows them.
