Justus

Justus is seemingly suspected of a crime. He decides to make the person of suspicion, one of his patients, fall in love with him in order to neutralize her this way. When this seems to fail, he resolves to kill her, which goes against his nature, leading to the inevitable failure of his plan. From the perspective of the investigator involved, Justus' moving story unfolds—his coming of age, his struggle for recognition and love—told with the motifs of a road movie in sharp, gripping, and virtuoso imagery. Humiliated as a student and abandoned by his parents, he embarks on a tumultuous journey through a life rich in adventures, encounters, and culinary delights, from childhood to trial. Justus, a promising individual, a bearer of hope, suffers under the blows of fate and a dominant father.
