(Maggie, I've seen you.

You have five minutes, to explain to me,

what you have just mixed in you've just mixed in. I have to report this.

Five minutes. Not a second longer.

[Groans]

[Breathes heavily]

Yes?

(cell phone vibrates)

Sorry. Wrong container.

So, what is it?

A DNA sample from Kai's grave.

(Ominous music swells up)

(Intro music)

I'll listen to what you have to say,

and then I do what I I should have done long ago.

Paul said, he has seen the "little hunter".

That you will never find it.

When we stole the steel helmet on his property stole the steel helmet from his property,

he called Kai "little hunter".

Kai was never buried.

The autopsy is fake by Seeger, by your father.

That's why it's missing.

Paul is completely through. Maybe he called every other person that.

Who collected leeches in jars?

Kai. But I saw his body.

You saw a two-week-old floater!

If Kai really really lies in this grave,

he will appear tomorrow in the DNA results tomorrow.

Wait until tomorrow.

Please.

(Car door slams shut)

(TV) It has now been confirmed,

that the man recovered alive died during the night

and the local resident Paul M. is in police custody.

M. is under urgent suspicion and is currently being questioned.

In Krewlow known as "Powder Paul",...

Everything ok?

My father lives here, I was just about to go in.

I have to eat something.

There's probably a bar over the bridge, We'll get something there.

Bar is a bit of an exaggeration. Powódz. They serve pierogi.

Drive up. I invite you.

(Edith) Where are you going?

I don't want to block your beds.

I can sleep with Adrian.

Adrian Demko? Are you still in contact?

Yes, I visited him yesterday. -Aha.

What's wrong with Adrian?

Oh, it's all good. None of my business.

That's the reason why something like that could happen out there.

Nothing is anyone's business.

Adrian is not the poor guy in the wheelchair,

for which he likes to pretend.

You know how old Jessen financed his villa.

Has sold his land.

After reunification, Jessen bought the land from everyone here.

[Laughs] It was all worth nothing.

Everyone only wanted Western products

and we are stuck with our stuff and we sat on our stuff. [Laughs.]

And then Jessen came to the rescue

and wanted to buy our land from us

for an apple and an egg.

But we didn't trust an old LPG man like Jessen.

And then Adrian's father Stojan arrived

and persuaded everyone.

Me too.

Stojan was one of us and had also sold.

I know, I was there at the time.

But Jessen then later...

...the whole country...

...for tens of times to Sativum AG.

And Stojan received a fat commission for his services a fat commission for his services.

But Stojan is dead.

Adrian is not responsible for his father.

But he was happy to inherit everything.

(doorbell)

And pretends he has nothing.

Has let everything gone to the dogs,

not a penny loose.

Nobody talks to him here anymore.

You're not exactly making yourself popular, when you put up with Adrian.

(Adrian is already asleep.

I've done your room upstairs the room ready for you.

Do you need anything else? Otherwise I'd leave now.

No, thanks.

Dobranoc. -night.

(Slot machines drown out piano music)

[Polish Talks]

Have you ever thought about getting your parents out of Krewlow?

My mother left long before me left long before me. My father...

...no chance.

Are you in contact with your mother?

Nope.

What happened back then between Magdalena Kring and you?

Do you want to interrogate me?

[Laughs.]

No, no.

You're just part of the story. We're just talking.

I'm sorry. None of my business.

She was pregnant when happened to her brother.

Until then, we were actually quite good together.

Yes, and then... she became paranoid.

And I didn't believe her. No one believed her.

She has taken medication.

Too many.

And then she was gone.

Left a letter,

that she no longer wanted the child. Our child.

Had it removed. -I'm sorry about that.

No. I have two now.

Enough for me.

And you? You're not just here because you're good at German.

No luck in love. -I've also done some research.

You really wanted to come here.

No family means, I have a lot of time.

And I like puzzles.

Nastrovje.

(Engine noise approaching)

Good morning. Please come this way.

Please feel free. You are welcome to take a look around.

Everything included, just as it is.

(TV) The police are still and forensics are still there,

the many corpse remains and cadavers to sort and examine.

It is assumed that the victims do not come from Krewlow

and probably specifically homeless people

and lonely people from other regions were killed.

The pile of corpses has been removed in the meantime

and underneath was a trapdoor was found,

which leads to an old cellar.

Good morning. -Morning.

What the police found there, is still unclear at the moment, but is said to be...

Hey. -Hi.

Come in. Do you want a coffee?

Mhm. -Kriegste.

Marek? Are you making Maggie some more coffee?

You look like your father.

Only from the outside. From the inside, everything is my mother.

[Marek] [Laughs] (What?

Yes, yes, yes, come on, make some coffee.

Did Jessen pay your father for his land the same as the others?

Marek, can you step outside for a moment, please?

And did you share Dad's inheritance? your brother and you?

Is that why you came here now?

To reproach me?

What was I supposed to do?

Running around playing Samaritan?

Do you think one of those wankers out there would have helped me?

You all fucked off and left me and left me sitting here in the shit.

I knew I was sitting here, until my feet rotted off.

Do you know what all this handicapped shit costs here?!

The car, Marek, the house?!

Do you think anyone will pay me for that?

My father first drank his conscience and then himself.

And honestly, yes...

Then I said: Fuck everyone and anyone.

The way everyone shit on me.

And now you come here and judge me?

Everyone looks at me, as if I were a criminal.

Finally someone who says what he thinks.

Adrian...

(Rock music from headphones)

(doorbell)

Hello, Mr. Demko. Is Adrian there?

Adrian!

By dinner time you'll be home again.

(Roland) Let's see your great secret.

You'll see. Otherwise it will no longer be a surprise.

Probably a pile of boob magazines.

How far is it? -So that we can manage without provisions.

Now stop talking shit. We'll be right there.

(Whispering voices)

And? Did I promise you too much?

Powder Paul dug it up, with his metal detector.

Could be your grandpa.

Pff. Nonsense. That's a Russian.

How do you know that? -You can see it. On the square skull.

We walk on a land of Russian bones.

I've seen better ones.

And what is that?

A real Nazi.

The best is yet to come.

Have you ever seen anything like it? Catch!

[Don't shit yourself right away.

BAM!

Stop this shit now. -We have to report this to Seeger.

Your mother we have to report Seeger.

Sorry, just slipped out.

Voit! Voit, come on...

Come on, let's go.

What are you doing now? That was a joke.

[Adrian gasps]

We have to get him out.

(Roland groans)

(Ominous music continues to swell)

(slowly pulsating rhythm)

Where is Kai?

Get Kai!

Kai?

(slurping noise)

What are you doing there?

What's wrong with you?

No, leave Kai alone!

Please, Dad.

(shot)

(Justus) In 20 years, the process has certainly certainly passed through a few hands.

I don't know what happened to the autopsy report, but...

...I saw Kai's body.

I had no reason to doubt anything.

(This incident here... What can you tell us about it?

Ah, yes.

Accident with a firearm.

The daughter has accidentally killed her father...

...injured.

(policeman) What can you tell us about Arthur Kring?

(Justus) Farmer. Like everyone else here.

We know each other, as you know everyone.

The bodies were stored in this vault under your land.

There used to be another farm.

All that is left of it is this old potato cellar remains.

Anyone can get in and out.

-Was there a connection between Arthur Kring and Paul Möbius?

Except that they're neighbors, not that I know of.

A jar of leeches was found in the cellar a jar of leeches was found in the cellar.

Any idea what this could mean?

(Arthur's breath rattles)

No. -Does Paul Möbius know this cellar?

Paul and his metal detector

know every centimeter in the whole area.

(Paul speaks unintelligibly to himself)

(Justus) You'd better ask me ask me about Pulver Paul.

Do you know why they all call him that?

Because he was always messing around with gunpowder.

It was always banging with him.

Had to move in more often because...

(Roland) When can we expect the new DNA results?

(Goldhofer) In two hours. At the meeting.

For me, that was a ticking time bomb.

What's new from Paul Möbius?

Mm-mm.

(Polish) Why are you going that way? -Come on, we're taking a shortcut.

(Muted dance music)

(Man, Polish) I'll be right with you, then we can get going.

(zipper noise)

(Loud dance music)

(Polish Conversations)

(Danja, Miron, Roman...

This is Ilona.

Hello! -Hey. -Hey.

Has Klozniak already preached her "new future" speech to you yet?

This is our space.

We can do anything here, what we want.

Almost everything.

On a scale from one to ten:

How strange is this for you? -15.

[Laughter]

It'll be 20, believe me.

One thing Klozniak says is true:

everyone here has been through the same shit.

We are all siblings. -Welcome to Assi-Hogwarts.

[Laughter]

(Zajak asks in Polish, muffled)

(Loud breathing)

(Polish conversation further muffled)

I have to go. Carry on here alone.

(Goldhofer) We'll see you again tomorrow.

Does everyone know what they have to do? Let's go.

Demirel. Any new DNA results?

Yes. -Yes? Any similarities?

Only one. Young girl from Slovakia.

Missing for eight years. -Nothing else? Are you sure?

-Yes. -Okay. Nothing from '97?

(Ominous music)

[Echo] If Kai is in this grave, he will show up in the DNA results.

(cell phone vibrates)

Maggie, not on the phone. Let's meet and talk.

Answer my question and I'll tell you where.

Has Kai been identified in the samples?

No.

With your father.

I'll talk to him alone. You stay here.

(TV) We don't know yet,

what was seen in the cellar under the bodies,

but another piece of information was revealed,

which gives the case a new dimension.

Several victims were drained of all their blood.

The press is already talking of the "Oderbruch Vampire."

(Further blow)

(Roland speaks in a muffled voice, unintelligible)

(Roland, muffled) Why can't I find out?

Why?

No matter what happened, it's all coming out now.

[Breathes heavily]

The sooner I know what you have to do with it,

the better I can perhaps help you.

Does it have anything to do with mom?

Say what happened.

I can't tell you... -Say what happened!

[Screams]

If anyone finds out...

...that I gave you this...

...then we're both dead.

The only question now is:

Can you live with the lie?

Or do you want to die with the truth?

(Laughs) Marek, yo.

I'm starting to get the feeling I have to be here every weekend

Spread a few bodies, so you can come and visit me.

[Drunken laughter]

What is it? We're drinking to the Nazi,

who 50 years after his death my legs 50 years after his death.

[Adrian and Marek laugh]

We baptized him Hans.

(laughter from below)

It's a bit spooky here, isn't it? So secluded in the middle of nowhere.

Tell her the Katia story.

Don't think she's ready to hear that shit.

Too late. Now I want to know.

Allegedly someone has

once found this letter found in the attic.

From a Katia Czernik. A ghost story.

It's a tradition here.

You read the letter, if you like that sort of thing,

and grabs it back again.

For me this is not a ghost story.

I think Katia really existed.

Bullshit.

Someone just put that in there, to scare the new ones.

I'll tell you where the letter is. Make up your own mind.

Don't read that shit. I couldn't sleep after that.

Do you all do this regularly? I mean donating blood.

Have to. But it's for a good cause.

Hospitals and such.

It's not all for nothing here. We pay with blood. Really fucked up.

(Danja laughs)

(Roland) Everything and nothing.

Lies, twisted facts and statements...

But nothing that explains why someone wants a fake funeral for Kai.

Or why my father should have been involved.

What are we going to do now? Are we going to have a video night or what?

What are we watching?

We're not watching anything. Please go outside.

Did you find an old sex tape? -Yes exactly...

Both of you?

Real pig stuff. Please, Marek.

Okay, I'm going. [Laughs]

Thank you.

Tell me what you saw.

I've seen a lot.

Too much.

To know, you have to believe me.

And belief is not knowledge.

Go on, Paul, we're all ears.

(Arthur's old buddy. He does it all. The great hunter.

(And who is that? this "great hunter"?

(Paul) [Laughs] I don't know. It's your fucking job!

(What's he doing?

(Kill someone you love. Then you do what they say.

But I don't love anyone.

That's why they can't get me. [Laughs shrilly]

[Scratches and sniffs]

He doesn't do anything himself. Has it done.

Funerals of people who are not even dead, for example.

I saw the boy. -What boy?

The little hunter. The Kring boy.

He's not dead.

You should take a look at yourselves, who you've put in the ground.

The little hunter is certainly not.

Ask where...

Ask where I saw him.

You're one of them. They've already got you!

You're one of them! They've already got you!

He's alive! I've seen him!

On the other side, that's where I saw him!

He's alive, he's not dead!

Over in Poland! That's where I saw him!

The little hunter is alive!

(click)

(Dramatic music swells)

Ask where I saw him.

You're one of them.

They already have you.

He's alive! I've seen him!

On the other side, that's where I saw him!

He is in Poland!

The little hunter is alive!

(Luba) Go on. I told you where the letter is.

Above the director's office. On the right-hand side.

(car approaching)

[Muffled conversation]

(Voices over radio)

(sheep bleating)

Sit down.

Kai needs help. I won't allow any more,

how you treat him.

We will take him to the doctor.

If you hurt him again,

then I'll shoot you at night, when you're asleep.

And you too.

If we don't take Kai to a doctor,

then I'll shoot you both in your sleep.

Back then, you and Kai to Poland again and again.

To protect him from his father. To friends, he told me.

Show me where.

I'm not leaving until I know where you've hidden it.

It's been too long, I can no longer remember.

At least the area. About.

And the name of the friends? -Buczek.

I'm sorry.

(doorbell)

Can I borrow Marek? -What?

I need someone who speaks Polish.

(Ominous music)

Kring?

Room eight.

The little one should stay outside for the time being.

We have done several tests with him,

without any particular anomalies.

He is introverted.

The strange behavior,

what your daughter describes, can have many reasons.

For example, that he being teased at school.

[Kai is perfectly healthy and...

is just going through a difficult phase.

He keeps telling me that he is being watched.

Has anxiety. What about it?

I think he just wants attention.

Is there anything we can do for him?

Um. At his age, he had... good experiences with dogs.

This helps to build empathy and... promotes social development.

Thank you. -With pleasure.

(Echoing dog barking)

(noises on the car)

Do you want something?

I ask here again for the name Buczek.

[Speeches Polish]

(dialog silent)

(Not audible)

Acquaintances of yours?

Nope.

Three kilometers down the road

there's an old farm, that belongs to the Buczek family.

Okay.

[Laughter, Polish whisper]

Ilona! You're late for your appointment.

Comm.

First time?

Mhm. -Don't be afraid.

It's just a little prick.

(bird crows)

Uh... This is the point now, where you tell me,

what we do here. -Wait here please.

Hello?

Kai?

Kai?

(shots)

Mailbox from Roland Voit...

Stand still!
