Schwarzer Kies plot
In the small village of Hunsrück, a military air base is being built for several thousand American soldiers. The locals view the matter with great suspicion, but realize that it offers enormous economic potential. This is how everyone wants to earn something from the Americans: as owners of bars that were once barns, as prostitutes or as builders of the air force base. Robert Neidhardt, a gravel trader also wants to make a lot of money. He is not even shy of the lucrative black market.

Well-acted, film noir-like movie that reminded me a lot of "Hell Drivers" with Stanley Baker from 1957 in terms of atmosphere. Following Brix's curious message dated 21-08-2021 14:21, I bought the Blu-ray from www.concorde-home.de (no subtitles) and really enjoyed this very strong, obscure film. Thanks Brix!!!
