Dreileben – Eine Minute Dunkel

When a convicted sex offender is allowed to visit the body of his deceased foster mother in the hospital, he manages to escape from his guards. While he hides in the Thuringian Forest, an inspector takes over the chase—and reopens the case. Christoph Hochhäusler's contribution to a film trilogy created together with Dominik Graf and Christian Petzold thrives on a nightmarish and complex darkness that the genre of German TV crime thrillers usually avoids at all costs.
