The irrepressible Sam Fuller fashions a crime thriller for German TV with his expected eccentricity: old-fashioned hardboiled scripting, freeform direction and bits of graffiti from the French New Wave.

And yes, a pigeon does bite the pavement on Beethoven Street, and I tell you, that's one dead pigeon.
