Willi is 18 years old and lives on the street. Without a goal in his life he walks around the city and meets several people, helping but also cheating him. When he meets a girl, Monica, he realizes that there are people out there whose lives are even more desperate than his. So he’s trying to help her (and him) by planning a great robbery on a supermarket’s money transporter.

Viewing Notes
I really like the grimy look and all the on-location shooting thru the streets of Hamburg (what’s up w/Hamburg in my viewing recently? Started w/Golden Glove and now this is the third film, IIRC). The story really is all the over the place but I’m sure that was part of the intent, to mirror the erratic behavior of Willi. By the end his flightiness was losing me.
