Adolf Schandl: retiree, escapee from Stein prison, hostage taker at Karlau. At the age of 80, still young at heart, he wants to go back to Australia one more time. But forty years of imprisonment cause complications with getting a visa. Bit by bit, growing from the seemingly comical habits of the elderly man is a knotted figure: he has a routine way of dealing with distortions of truth, and a bizarre definition of right and wrong. I’m a bad guy — a trenchant, madness-filled portrait. And a slice of Austrian criminal history.
