What to Do in Case of Fire Movie Review 2002

In 1987, six friends, part of an anarchist group in Berlin, make a bomb and place it in an empty building. It sits there until it's inadvertently detonated 15 years later. Although no one is injured, there is no statute of limitations on their crime. Veteran police detective Manowsky (Lowitsch) knows just who to look for and goes after the group's two remaining holdouts Tim (Schweiger) and Hotte (Feifel). The cops find incriminating materials and the buddies must now seek out their four former members in order to get them all off the hook. German with subtitles.
