UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
这是近来看过最好的一部电影，终于没有骂骂咧咧。喜欢这种缓而不慢，该出手时就出手的干净利落，故事不复杂，情感却不经意间出现在每一个镜头中。
双男主都好美 波兰版《胡佛》的冷峻气质出来了
以为会是一个苦大仇深的大型政治迫害事件，但只是公安领导被拍到色情录像里导致的灭口行动，与所谓风信子行动只是有一点联系吧。罗伯特和埃里克化学反应不错，很加分，两人的前戏拍的非常出色，审讯戏也很好，最后埃里克能跑掉也是没太想到。
比预想的好看一点，不过太容易猜到下一秒剧情了，床戏还可以。
ps 跟踪的戏太假了，真是明目张胆的追踪，作为一个警察一点点的反侦察意识怎么会没有..
太难看了……故事老套不说，还在搞“异性恋就是奔着结婚去的，同性恋却可以为爱献身”这一套同性即真爱理论，联想到现实里的同性滥交本质，又可笑又令人作呕
画面精美，冷暗压抑的氛围感充足。男主一点作为警察的敏锐度都没有，破案剧情再老派也不能这么凑合吧，男二全程小白花，仿佛去别墅应召的不是他似的。
如果没有把直男掰弯这出，我就给五星。我反对同性恋，但我赞美给同性恋自由空间的国家。因为我认为，真正的自由，就是在不危害他人的前提下想干嘛就干嘛。
关于感情
电视电影水准的neo noir犯罪片，放在80年代波兰反同高峰的背景下让人唏嘘。
对脸盲比较友好，众多的人物都尽量做了服装、造型、化妆的差异化，点赞。就是常常不能分清台词是哪个角色说的，两个男演员的音色比较接近，只能靠语境猜一猜。视听太出色了，这摄影、这运镜、这配乐，啧啧啧，看得我如沐春风。
出乎我的意料，很好看，五星推荐。阴冷的社会背景倒是让感情愈加温暖，“我会找到你的”也许只有在梦里才能实现吧!性少数群体内部也存在权利压迫。某些极端人士又开始了，试问在一个封闭的社会中，相关信息极其落后，谁又能真正做到性取向的觉醒？更不用说被认为是罪和病了。考虑问题请看历史背景谢谢。
这两天断断续续看的 没啥特别的感触吧 男主演技蛮好的 丝毫没有代入marry poppins
他或许还会活着
#4.5/5
女朋友人很好！妈妈那句“但你没有欺骗自己”很坚定！男主在档案上签字的时候能感受到力量！
然后跟男生发生关系后，楼顶就飞过两只鸟，同时起飞，方向却不一样了
面对同志杀手，警察“以身试法”，最后的结局就是惨兮兮，这样的记录在西方的特殊历史时期里，大环境无情压制同性生存秘事的电影差不多都快一个品相了。整体并不出彩，对警察和小哥的情感的描绘也比较一般。
天啊，这么得劲的题材怎么能拍得这么不得劲……男主长得好像(刘德华+开花)/2
还好，很见过世面地没有把故事停在探案或者同性题材，而是真实地反映当年的波兰，不只是对少数族群的迫害，更多地是对正义公平的破坏和黑暗的阶级交易。在这样的内容取舍下，反而叙事传统都变成了优点。结尾处偷听的父亲与上级谈话，展示了黑暗时代的亲人间的某种守护，与最后的“我会找到你的”才能形成彼此的映照，是时代背景下难以完全放开手的生存之道。感情戏拍得挺稳的，不烂俗，这是有助于推进人物描写的。男二应该给摄影造型红包，影人页的照片都是些啥。亵渎电影说的不错，其实挺适合拍成10集短剧的。
