If crime was so easy to turn away, no one would actually join in, in the first place. But sometimes, it’s your friends that loop you into the underground, into risky and dangerous situations that take you away from your families and lovers, even if you know better. Short Sharp Shock is centered around one such friendship between three immigrants, a Turk, a Serb, and a Greek, that depicts a portrait of a German multi-cultural neighborhood that hasn’t been widely seen before this film’s release. It feels very reminiscent of classic American gangster films, albeit with an eclectic mix of languages, sounds, and images, and writer-director Fatih Akin captures his home district with confidence and style.
