Plot edit
Zavarov, a psychotic Russian thief who likes to steal religious icons, is on the run from a group of undercover cops who don't know Zavarov has planted an informant amongst them. Zavarov makes his getaway on a train, only to discover the police were able to board before leaving the station. He hijacks the train and demands passage to Austria. The police cleverly run the train in a loop and mask a Hungarian train station as if it were in Nickelsdorf, Austria (the actual station filmed is in Szabadbattyán). This fools Zavarov into thinking he is in Austria, and when he exits the train, the police surround him.
