The main character of this story is Dragan Janczak, the Gipsy, an old acquaintance of the commissioner !! And who plays his role ? Bernhard Wicki, the director of "Die Brücke" and a very good actor: he plays in two episodes of the Old Fox: "Alten Kameraden" (1981) and "Der Zigeuner" (1981) and in two episodes of "Derrick": "Eine Nacht im Oktober" (1977) and "Zeuge Yurowski" (1980) !! Let's come back to the story: some prisioners have escaped from the prison and are now in the house of Dragan Janczak.After a shooting they have injured a policeman and captured the other policeman: so they have two hostages.In the police headquarters the Commissioner proposes to speak with Dragan Janczak , the Gipsy, because his son Roman is involved in the hostage taking.The chief of the police shows mistrust in this man who the same day has been arrested for car theft,but the Commissioner insists !! What will happen then ? A good story with a touch of suspense. Great performances of Bernhard Wicki, Sabi Dorr, Hans Georg Panczak, Robert Meyer, Karl Renar and Henning Schlüter.
