THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN
PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

IS ONLY A STUBBORNLY PERSISTENT
ILLUSION. ALBERT EINSTEIN

We trust that time is linear.

That it proceeds eternally, uniformly.

Into infinity.

But the distinction
between past, present

and future

is nothing but an illusion.

Yesterday, today and
tomorrow are not consecutive,

they are connected in
a never-ending circle.

Everything is connected.

SECRETS

NOVEMBER 4, 2019

Fuck.

Mom.

Mom!

You'd think by 16, they'd
know how to make toast.

Mom!

The power's out again.

Mom!

Thanks for breakfast.

Coming to the meeting tonight?

I don't know.

- Katharina will be there.
- And I'll be there.

Yes, you'll be there.

That's right.

Ulrich.

I love you.

You're beautiful.

MISSING

WINDEN CAVES 0.6 MILES

How was it?

How have you been these last two months?

You don't have to talk
about it if you don't want.

I read the notes from
your therapy sessions.

You did pretty good, especially
in the group sessions.

I still see him.

In your dreams?

Why do you think you see him?

As my therapist, shouldn't you tell me?

Are you taking your meds?

I think he's trying
to tell me something.

Or maybe I just want
him to tell me something.

What do you think that might be?

What do I think it might be?

Why?

Why he left?

Why like that?

Why he fucking hanged himself?

And why he didn't leave a word?

Nothing to explain this fucking crap!

NOVEMBER 4, 10:13 P.M.

The Winden nuclear power
plant has a long history.

Plans to erect the nuclear power
plant go back as far as 1953.

Construction was first
authorized in 1960

after the Atomic Energy Act was passed.

As part of the government's
staggered plan

to phase out nuclear energy,

the Winden power plant will
be taken off the grid in 2020,

making it one of Germany's power plants

with the longest failure-free operation.

Mikkel, you're not going
to school like that.

A good magician needs
a distinctive style.

Change your clothes. Thank you.

These are my work clothes.

And school sucks!

I'm sure the great
Hodini went to school.

- Houdini! It's not that hard!
- Come have breakfast.

- The greatest magician ever.
- Are you sure he's not adopted?

- And his name is Houdini!
- Same crap every morning.

Mom, where's my black hoodie?

I don't know. Maybe with the jackets.

Magnus, stop trampling like that!

- Morning, Mikkel.
- Good morning.

Ulrich! Why did it take so long?

First day of school. A
huge line at the bakery.

The Apocalypse is upon
us. You coming to eat?

It's not with the jackets.

Ouch!

- Then maybe it's in your gym bag.
- What's going on here now? Magnus?

- Breakfast.
- Mom, I'm on hunger strike.

I won't stuff my face as long as

a child starves to
death every ten seconds.

I will.

The damn hoodie isn't in the bag.

- Did you steal my hoodie?
- No, I did not!

- Can't you stop arguing for once?
- Mom, I didn't do anything.

- Where can it be?
- Can I please have my lines back?

Magnus, maybe it's up in the laundry.

Martha, starving won't help anyone.

Mikkel, get changed now. Last warning!

- Or we'll be late.
- Whose idea was it to have kids?

- Can you please open this?
- You're in the way!

Did you understand me?

All right then, Houdini.

One last trick, then off to school.

Fine, then everyone can do as they wish.

Found it!

Okay.

There...

and there.

Amazing! How did you do that?

Dad, the question isn't how,

the question is when.

Hey!

Welcome back to the madhouse.

It was damn boring without you here.

- Hey, what the hell are you staring at?
- What a freak.

What idiots.

Did you tell anyone?

I told everyone you were on a
two-month school exchange in France,

playing
hide-the-baguette.

Relax. Come on.

It'll be fine. Let's go.

Come on.

- What about here?
- You didn't miss much.

Except for the thing with Erik.

You don't give a shit!

Why is nobody doing anything?
Where is our son? Where is Erik?

Mr. Obendorf.

No one is unimportant to us
here. We've done 172 interviews.

We've questioned neighbors and
friends, combed the entire forest,

searched the houses and
basements of nearby residents.

23 officers and over 50 volunteers

have been searching
for your son for days.

We're doing our job. And we'll
do it better if you calm down.

- You're not doing shit!
- Hey!

Calm down! Stop. Calm down now.

Hey! Come now.

Listen.

We can't rule out the possibility
that no crime has been committed.

- What's that supposed to mean?
- Maybe Erik left voluntarily.

He's done it before.

But when he ran away, he
always came back after two days.

- He'd sleep in the basement or wherever.
- It's been 13 days.

It's been 13 days now.

We'll find your son, I promise.

Now go home. Okay?

Go home.

Franziska.

Magnus.

Shouldn't you be with the geeks?

Should the principal's son be
smoking a joint on school grounds?

Especially such bad weed.

Assemblies like this are for
idiots. They need to get rid of them.

Maybe you did miss something.

Hey.

Hey.

How was France?

French. How else?

What a nice welcome. Thank you.

The reason I've asked you
to assemble here before class

is because I wanted to talk to
you about something important.

About Erik Obendorf.

You all know Erik has been
missing for almost two weeks now.

I want to tell you that if
you need to talk to someone,

if you have questions or if you know
anything about Erik's disappearance,

you can come to us at any time.

Come to us, talk to us.

There can be no secrets in this matter.

Okay?

No one saw him after practice.
Not a trace, nothing.

- As if he vanished into thin air.
- Maybe he just doesn't want to be found.

The money under the bed? His phone?

You'd take that if
you were running away.

Sometimes people just want to get away.

49 tire tracks on the road between
the school and the residential area.

Two of them are from trucks.

There are 21,312 vehicles registered
in the district of Winden alone.

- That's all we have.
- So we've got nothing at all.

Erik's father drives a van.

You don't think he's involved.

Why are you so certain Erik ran away?

This is Winden.

- Nothing ever happens here.
- But that hasn't always been the case.

This has nothing to do with my brother.

Not a thing.

Oh, your mother called the
emergency number again this morning.

Maybe you should pay her a visit.

Do you ever wonder where
you took a wrong turn?

Where your life became
the exact opposite

of what you always wanted it to be?

FOREST HOTEL WINDEN

Hotel Winden. Regina Tiedemann
speaking. How can I help you?

I see, but surely there's
something we can do.

Temporarily suspend the
loan repayments, for example.

Just a slight deferment of payments

until things have
calmed down again here.

I have not miscalculated.
Are you even listening to me?

Who wants to go on vacation in a
town where a child has disappeared?

Would you want that?

I have a family suite available.

A weekend with the little ones?
They'd love it, wouldn't they?

You bankers sit on your piles of
money and think you can bully people.

I've built up a business here.
By myself. Without any help.

My husband and I have been
customers of your bank for 20 years!

And now you're pulling
this? You stupid asshole!

I want to speak to your supervisor.

Hello?

Hello?

Shit, shit, shit!

A black hole forms

when the center of a star collapses

into itself after a supernova explosion.

Even new neutron matter
cannot prevent the collapse.

You know what I've
been wondering for days?

If the blackest hole of all is
parked in Franziska Doppler's ass.

But, seriously, what I
really wonder is this:

If Erik didn't run away, but got
snuffed out or something instead,

then all his dope is still in the caves.

He kept his entire stash there.

- So?
- Oh, man!

We go in there and... bingo!

- That's bullshit.
- It's awesome.

You haven't been here in a long time.

Where's Dad?

You could come by more often.

Mom, if you want me to stop by then
call me, not the emergency number.

I saw something in the forest again.

This time very clearly.

A dark figure with a gigantic head.

Mom.

You don't believe me.

There are things out
there that our little minds

will never comprehend.

And I found this in the forest.

Mads loved those.

This business with that missing Erik...

FOR MOTHER'S DAY 1986

... like with your brother, back then.

Everything's repeating itself.

Everything is just like
it was 33 years ago.

REST HOME WINDEN

It's going to happen again.

It's going to happen again.

It's going to happen again.

Bullshit. Then you'll go
around selling it or what?

No, dude. We'll smoke
half of it ourselves.

And if there are capacities on
the market, you don't hesitate.

We'll go there and get the stuff.

Easy peasy.

Who's getting what stuff?

We're going to the caves tonight.

- You turning into boy scouts?
- Bartosz thinks Erik's dope is there.

Fanny told me they once found a
dead squirrel with five legs there.

You'll believe any old crap.

Just because you can't
see past your nose

doesn't mean there aren't
things going on out there

that the nuclear power mafia
keeps secret from the public.

Don't forget to breathe.

Franziska.

Magnus.

- You got a crush on her now or what?
- Shut up.

- Hey, idiot.
- Okay, what the hell.

- Let's go to the caves tonight and look.
- Yeah, dude!

Come on.

Can't even hold out half a day?

Impossible. I'm dying.

You coming later?

I don't know.

Everyone will be there.

Gawking at me.

I'll be in Frankfurt this weekend
for training, staying in a hotel.

And...

- Um... Yeah, I thought...
- You thought?

Don't think too long,

I have various candidates.

- See you later.
- Maybe.

Yes, right there.

It's totally knotted up.

It's supposed to rain later.

Scars sense that.

They can see into the
future, so to speak.

The tissue hardens

and cramps up.

Thanks.

Maybe the whole thing is getting
to me more than I thought.

In a year, everything here
is meant to come to an end.

Nearly 33 years ago to the
day when I came to Winden.

I never thought it would end like this.

But there's a time for everything.

Yes.

There's a time for everything.

I'm sorry. About the thing with Michael.

How are you doing? How's Jonas?

Good.

We're good.

It's Hannah here. The power's out again.

I mean, if you want us out of
the house, then just say so.

Your grandson hasn't seen
you in over three months.

Do you think Michael wanted that?

That's sick.

You're sick.

DO NOT OPEN BEFORE
NOVEMBER 4, 10:13 P.M.

Hannah!

How nice.

We haven't seen each other for ages.

How are you?

Okay.

Yeah, well, you know... I'm okay.

Good.

Go inside. I'll be right in, okay?

Hi.

Hi.

Where are Bartosz and the others?

Late. As always.

- The thing with Bartosz...
- It's okay. You don't need to explain.

But I want to.

I wrote you a text while you were away.

Not just one.

But I never sent them.

It all sounded wrong somehow.

What happened between us last summer...

- I...
- It's really okay.

Something up?

I think I'm having déjà vu.

The light, the forest.

As if all of this has
already happened before.

A glitch in the matrix.

What?

If the world is a simulation,
déjà vu is a glitch in the matrix.

Or a message from the other side.

I read that somewhere.

I'm glad you're back.

- Hey, what the hell?
- Parents' meeting.

Heide's got a stomach
bug. I'm stuck with him.

Hi, Jonas. Ultimate fist bump?

Take him back now.

- You take him back.
- Relax, guys.

I'm not a baby anymore.

What's the idiot doing here?

Only I can do that, okay?

Ouch!

Well, let's go!

It's going to happen again.

It's going to happen again.

It's going to happen again.

You all know that Erik has
been missing for 14 days now.

At this point, we have
no new findings to report.

We're also considering that
he may have simply run away.

If any of your children say
anything about Erik or know anything,

please inform us.

- Thank you, Charlotte.
- How long do you want to wait?

I'd like to talk about
how we interact at school.

And about which measures we
can take to boost security.

What kind of measures?

You heard her say it's not clear
that anything even happened.

But we can't rule anything out,
including that Erik didn't run away.

WILL BE OUTSIDE IN 5 MINUTES

This alarmist talk is absurd.

Charlotte, correct me if
I'm wrong, but in the region,

Winden has the lowest crime rate.

There are no murderers
running around here.

- Statistics only give...
- But we can't just sit and do nothing.

And just wait around until
Erik is found dead somewhere.

What do you guys think happened to Erik?

Kids in our class are
saying someone kidnapped him,

and has him locked up in a basement.

Oh, shut up. He just ran away.

But it could be that he's locked
up somewhere and can't get out.

Why would someone do
that? Lock someone else up?

It's like the witch
in Hansel and Gretel.

When she gets hungry,
she has something to eat.

No. Even if Mom and Dad tell
you that most people are nice,

there are people out there
who are anything but nice.

- Like your sister.
- You idiot.

My father said good and evil
are a question of perspective.

Dead father, bad topic?

And if Erik is no longer alive?

If he's lying dead somewhere
and no one finds him?

That would be the worst.

Even if you're dead,
you want to be found.

No one is dead, and no
one won't be found, okay?

Can we please change the topic now?

The most important thing
is that we stick together.

That we pull together.

The most important thing is not
to blow this out of proportion,

or we'll have the press
in town in a few days.

We know that doesn't quite
fit in with your plans, Regina.

If you mean my hotel, this
isn't about that at all.

- No? What is it about then?
- It's about our town.

Wrong. This is about a missing child.

Who probably just ran away.
You just heard it yourself.

Maybe you should just worry
about your own problems.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

It's going to happen again.

Helge!

- What are you doing here?
- Is it already too late?

Helge.

It's me, Charlotte.

I'll take you back now, okay?

It's going to happen again!

I'm bored.

- Can we please go home now?
- Nonsense, we're nearly there.

Jonas!

Come on!

ATTENTION!

Over there.

In the armchair.

- And?
- Fuck, dude.

- It was here!
- Looking for this?

- What's she doing here?
- That's mine.

The definition of ownership says

that possession is nine-tenths
of the law, so it's mine for now.

But I'm selling. What'll
you give me for it?

A kick in the ass.

What's in here is easily worth 500.

It's yours for 200.
Daddy's got plenty of money.

Stop the bullshit.

Just give it to me.

Jackpot!

What's that?

Someone's there.

Oh, shit!

Holy shit!

Shit.

- Damn flashlight!
- What is this?

What's that?

- Run!
- Move!

- Run!
- Go!

Come on.

Mikkel?

Mikkel!

Jonas.

What the fuck, man! What was that?

No idea. Shit!

Man, what was that?

Where are Jonas and Mikkel?

Where is Mikkel?

Where is Mikkel?

Why isn't he with you?

He was with you!

Shit! Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Too late.

We're too late.

Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Mikkel?

Mikkel!

Mikkel!

Do you have anything?

Okay.

Yes?

- Have you found him?
- Nothing.

No trace of Mikkel.

- How's Franziska?
- Sleeping.

Charlotte, I...

Can we...

I have to tell you...

Charlotte?

I have to go.

Okay.

Okay.

God grant me the serenity to
accept the things I cannot change,

the courage to change the things I can,

and the wisdom to know the difference.

God grant me the serenity to
accept the things I cannot change,

the courage to change the things I can,

and the wisdom to know the difference.

Calling all units. At the
forest edge at Neuweiher,

elevation F026, two-mile marker,
a child's body has been found.

I repeat, a child's body has been found.

I'm sorry.

That's not Mikkel.

That's not Mikkel.
