About Run Lola Run

Run Lola Run (German: Lola rennt, lit. 'Lola Runs') is a 1998 German avant-garde thriller film written and directed by Tom Tykwer. It follows a woman named Lola (Franka Potente) who needs to obtain 100,000 marks (equivalent to €71,000 in 2021) in 20 minutes to save the life of her boyfriend, Manni (Moritz Bleibtreu). Run Lola Run screened at the 55th Venice International Film Festival, where it competed for the Golden Lion.
