        The first move has to be 1.Bh4
        since 1.Kc1 Ra1+ or 1.Kd3 Ra1
        2.Kd2 Re1 are bad.

        After 1.Bh4 Ra1 2.Bb3 (to prevent Rh1) might hold.

        well obviously not a ~win~ for white since white cannot prevent black from sacrificing the rook for a bishop

        looks like a draw to me, but i make mistakes in these cases.

        Bh4 for sure.
