25 years after its US release, Run Lola Run returns to cinemas newly restored, cementing its status as an emblematic film of the 1990s independent cinema boom. Lola (Franka Potente) needs to obtain 100,000 Deutsche Marks in twenty minutes to save her boyfriend’s life. Running through the streets of Berlin, she darts between fate and free-will as she seeks to complete her quest.
