(dark, mystical throat singing)

(Pulsating rhythm begins.)

(Throat singing and pulsating music)

(Music swells.)

(He groans)

(Groan)

(soft, exciting sounds)

(distant fairground music)

Thank you.

(Babble of voices,
distant fairground music)

(TV) ... people experience it
the planned construction east

mostly as the opposite.

Companies are closed,
Industries relocated to other regions.

The economic downturn
let all over the east ...

Patrick Stein.

Oh we thought
You don't come anymore.

There was a cow in the way.
- (She laughs.)

We have already taken your room.
- And now?

Sleep in bed with your colleague.
It's already there.

I'll let you know
if something becomes free again, yes?

(N) ... said Waigel that he was ready
To compromise

but they should be reasonable.

The way out of the debt trap
don't do it with him ...

Hello?

(Door squeaks.)

(He cries out.)

Police. Bad luck.
- Me too. Patrick Stein.

I haven't got a room anymore.
- Identification card?

Right back pocket.
(He groans.)

Excuse me. Don't know a cop
who fights so bad.

I have other qualities.
- Mhm. Markus Bach, chief commissioner.

Görlitz police.

Tell Markus.
I don't like the face.

We have to get out tomorrow morning.
We eat something and go to sleep.

(Woman) I already miss you.
- I also you. Very.

(sighs) Hey man ...

How is the little one in the oven?
- Okay so far.

What does the doctor say? Today was precaution.
- If you had been there, you would have known.

I don't like that either.
- Just say no.

He is the police chief!

I wasn't in Rostock for half an hour,
I was already sent on.

In this damned place here.
- Patrick, you take this too personally.

The whole management floor
seems corrupt to me.

I have to quit. Sleep well.
- (policeman) Hello.

Don't mess with everyone again.
- I am here for the birth, I promise.

Patricia is the older. She is 17.
Nadine is 15, I think.

16.
- (Bach) Tell me, Meli

are you going to take the breath out?

Thank you very much.
- Where were you last seen?

At the end of town.
Her father is a ferryman over the Neisse.

They live outside of Löwitz
and went home from the fair.

A neighbor saw her
get into a car around midnight.

She was the last to see the girls.
- The car, which brand?

Probably VW Golf.

Model?
- No idea.

She wasn't sure.
- How long ago was that?

Two days.

Delicious sausages.
Is there a butcher in town?

Mhm.
- And the mustard? - Bautz'ner.

Westerners can't.
They just can't.

Are you gone for the first time?
- Well, they have a reputation.

But they were always home before one.
- What reputation?

(Policeman) Well, hold a call.
You already know.

No. Explain it to me.

They like to have fun.
- And you don't?

They are bitches. Everyone knows here.

Is there still a grain?

(Babble of voices, screeching)

(Bach) Another ten. For both.

Don't pull a puff.
You rocked that in yourself.

For a few grams of coke you take
not the boss's brother hops.

Is this how it goes here?
- With you, too, it seems.

You're right.
The GDR is full of state criminals.

But in the West there is crime
to make good state. - Right.

You westerners buy us stupid ossis
the country away with the criminal coal.

At least the spying has an end.
- Yeah, keep dreaming.

In any case, I can reward you
investigate with you.

In the blooming landscapes.
- No enthusiasm for building up the East?

But clearly. It will be great.
"Germany United fatherland."

Your cynicism brought you here, huh?
- This is not a punishment for me.

I'm not a great West Commissioner,
who wants to play the hero.

(Shot)

No, you'd rather hang out in bars
and rip off whores what you hear.

PH '. what else did you hear about me?

Enough.

You can't fight.
And you can't shoot either.

I take the wine
and two cups, please.

Just a mug.

Keep the change. Good night.

Good night
- I sleep at the window. - Yes.

Cheetah.

(Soft pop music is playing.)

Uh, Sigi,
what are they drinking over there?

Vodka.
- I'm going for a round.

Is that enough?

So go on me.

How, what time is it?

Late. Stand up.

I got your car out of the swamp
to let go. Is in the workshop.

You can pick him up tomorrow.
We were lent a car.

(Announcement) friends and fellow citizens,
come to VEB every morning

and supports our strike
for safe work and fair wages.

The decline of the VEB
would be the decline of Löwitz ...

I heard
that the girls wanted to get out of here.

From whom?
- People like to talk.

When they're drunk.

Yes here.

And where did they want to go?
- Just go away.

The two reportedly had
a lot of argument with her father.

(exciting, disturbing sounds)

(Dog barks.)

Sh!

Catherine!

Katharina, bring the men two beers.

(quietly) good afternoon.
- Good day.

Good day.

(scary sounds)

Oh, that's nice.

Thank you very much.
- You're welcome.

What smells so good here?
- Ragout Fin.

With Worcester sauce?

Yes, recently
there are also real ones to buy.

What do you want to know?
- Where's the girls room?

(Stone) May I?

Do you have any idea,
where could they have gone?

Was there trouble?

Do you know if something is missing?
- A passbook that belonged to the girls.

Dress.

Do you know why they wanted to leave?

My girls didn't want to leave.
- (Bach) Hm ...

Have your daughters been threatened?

New car?
- (Father) bought used.

Tired of old Trabi, huh?
- I didn't have a car.

15 years waiting period. What do you want here?

We want to find your daughters.
- What.

Nobody cares
for my girls.

Here. I fished that out of the oven.

If he gets that out
he kills our girls.

He's ashamed of himself
because of you.

(dark sounds)

Were they traveling alone?
or with someone?

Hm?

Your friends have disappeared.
Don't you care

So now open your mouth.

Otherwise you can think in the cell
if you can think of anything, so ...

Were the sisters alone?

Yes.

Did you speak to them
- You were far away.

We were together briefly later.

On the bumper car.
After that we are home.

That was just before midnight,
I know exactly.

Where did you split up?
- At the crossroads at the end of the town.

You have to go a bit further than us,
to the ferry house.

Do you know if they have a boyfriend?
- (hesitantly) No.

(Bach) You wanted to get out of here.
- Who does not want that?

I do not want to go away.
- (girl) You're pretty stupid.

And you're just jealous.

Did you tell where you wanted to go?
- Where it's better than here.

Do you know a friend
who has a golf? In blue?

Maybe Corinna saw something.
The old woman lives at the end of the town.

(Clack)

(giggling) Beautiful Charlie!
- What do you all have?

Her friend is there.

can we go now?

Yes.

(dark sounds)

The beautiful Charlie.

(Bach) your son?
- Yes.

It is four weeks after the fall of the wall
away to Munich for work.

(Bach) And that?
- My daughter Elvira.

She is studying in Leipzig.
And this is my youngest.

It is two months ago
gone to Berlin for work.

Please tell me again
what you saw.

Over there at the town sign
he stopped.

Have you seen,
how many people were in the car? - No.

Were the girls forced
to get in?

I think,
they knew the driver.

I heard laughter.
- Who laughed? The driver?

Or the girls?

Uh yes.

But the driver was definitely a man?

I made some sketches.

This is a Golf I
with rectangular rear lights.

This is a Golf II
with rounded tail lights.

Well, I didn't pay attention to that.

I think the.

Of the? Golf II.

(Car honks and races past.)

Who are they?
- (Corinna) short-time worker from Poland.

Our children have no jobs
because they work for a third.

Maybe your kids want
not doing such a job anymore?

You know him.
He's definitely from here.

Or he's a seasonal worker
that comes every year.

Or is it someone
who works at the fair

and is here regularly.

The father of the girls
has a Golf II in black.

Stand behind the house.
At night, black turns blue.

Anthracite and gray are common.

Listen.
There is someone who wants to talk to you.

(exciting, rhythmic sounds)

(mystical throat singing)

Angelique is a clairvoyant.
She sees things.

When she sleeps
she talks to the dead.

(mystical throat singing)

Sit down.

Got tonight
talked to my dead mother.

God bless her.
She saw the two girls.

At the farm
between Dallgow and Löwitz.

The servants' house on the branch to Pritt.

What is?
(dark music)

Nothing.

(spherical, oppressive sounds)

(Rumble)
- (Bach) Patrick, come here!

(menacing, pulsating sounds)

(swelling sound)

(shrill, eerie sound)

Help me, I'll get her out.

Do you have me
- (policeman) Yes.

(groaning) It's not enough. Even deeper.
- (Policeman) Careful.

(Stone groans.)

One more piece.

(groaning) Caution. Yes.

I have ... one more piece.

Yes. I have her!
- (cop) do you have them? - Yes.

(exciting, dissonant sounds)

(dark, pulsating sounds)

(Rattle)

(Stone) Stop!

Do not shoot! You're welcome!
- Why are you running away?

I ... I did
no hunting permit.

Where are you from
- From Löwitz.

(Stone) Oh get up.

What's your name?
- Richy.

So, Erich Horn.
But everyone here calls me Richy.

Do you still know me from the bar?
- My skull is humming from the vodka.

How do you get here
- Well, on foot.

Very far from the village.
- I know the paths.

Have you seen anyone
In the servant's house?

I don't like the place.
- (cop) Hey you idiot!

(Bach) What do you get for the pig?
- tens of kilos.

You are not selling this.
Let it be prepared.

With a salad.
You owe us something.

(Stone) run. Run!

(Cop) piss off!

Damn asshole!
Crappy bum!

Did you get something out?

Nothing.
- And in the fountain?

Rubbish. Then nothing.

(Whistle)
(Man calls) over here!

(Bach) Nadine.

Patricia.

Get in the car.
I forgot my notebook.

(soft, unsettling sounds)

(Sounds swell.)

(Stone throws up.)

Where was that
- Down there.

Then why do you put it here?
- Well, about the other things.

So that nothing gets lost.

I can also bring it back.
- No, just don't touch anything anymore.

(Man) Come on, report.

Multiple chest injuries.
A couple of cuts.

Probably stab wounds.

Severe burn on the left hand.

She was definitely tied up
during a longer time.

(whispers) We don't have that otherwise.
- And the second body?

Cuts on the neck,
Abdomen, rib cage.

Left hand, three amputated fingers.
Signs of vaginal injuries.

She was probably raped
like her sister.

Help me times
turn the body over.

(Groan)

Serious injuries also on the anus.

The way the bodies are swollen

they were in the water for a day or two.

There are burns on the neck.

The minor injuries
probably come from small animals.

Where does this path lead?
- To the wastewater treatment plant.

Clear the Löwitz Schiet,
Dallgow, Pritt and Bednarz.

(Camera clicks)

Hey Hey, hey, hey.
Who are the photos for?

Hey
- "Barnimer Tagblatt".

Who called you?
- Source protection.

Get out of here.
- I can help.

Get out of there, vulture.
- Give me information! Hey

It is now a free country.

Freedom of the press. Ever heard of it?
- Yes, again tomorrow.

Come on, Mr. Stein.

Come on.

(soft, exciting sounds)

Clarify that quickly,
with the utmost discretion.

We have enough trouble already
with the whole ...

With the strike.
We don't need more chaos.

Not more uncertainty, huh?

Come on, let's go.
Head office in Rostock.

We have to report.

(Bach whispers) You were
not murdered here.

(Stone) He has it
thrown out of the car.

There are two tire tracks. They wanted
to the sewage treatment plant and turned around here.

Maybe he saw someone
and got nervous.

Maybe he wasn't alone.

You notify the parents.
They know you. - No.

You do that.
We meet them every day.

You will soon be gone.
But we have to live on here.

I do it.

(exciting, oppressive sounds)

(incomprehensible)

(Mother sobs.)

(Mother cries violently.)

(exciting, oppressive sounds)

(Stone) thank you.

(electronic music)

You take the gentlemen over there
A bottle of vodka? I pay.

So, my little one, off to bed.

(TV) The wages are in the east
only at 82 percent of the western level ...

Ah hello!
Um, that has arrived for you today.

And, Mr. Stein, your wife would like
that you call them back.

Thank you.

(N) Last year is the population
shrunk by six percent in the east,

Except East Berlin.

This trend has now stopped,
says the government's East Commissioner.

However, he sees despite all the successes
also a lot of skepticism and dissatisfaction.

The biggest challenge is this
demographic change,

the the east
could hit earlier and harder.

Some regions
a real aging threatens ...

(menacing sounds)

(shrill, threatening sounds)

(Someone bangs on the door.)

A man wants to speak to you.
He is drunk and has a gun.

(soft, throbbing sounds)

Who are you?

(Stein) We are from the police.

You are not cops.
What do you want here?

We don't sleep in uniform.
- Stay away!

(Stone) do you wanna see my brand

Stay away.
- I'm going to show you my brand now.

Do you see?

Here. Now give us your gun.

It is not loaded.

I'm so sorry.
We have to talk to someone.

She was my friend.

He killed her.

Theresa.

My girlfriend is too
disappeared a year ago.

Like his.

He kills her, dismembered her
and throws them into the river.

That's why you only have one
found her foot.

(Bach) What foot?
- It was her shoe.

I know it!

I got her shoes two years ago
bought at the fair.

She said she'll be back.
- (Bach) From where?

Berlin. She had found a job
in a posh hotel.

She wanted to come back.

She loved me.

Nobody brings himself
with a suitcase in hand.

It was hers.
He was found floating in the river.

Rolf.

Who do you think it was?

(dark sounds)

(He sighs.)

(He groans.)

(Dribble)

(He gasps violently.)

(He moans softly.)

(dark sounds)

(Beak rattling)

(dark, threatening sounds)
(Croak)

(Croak)

(Dark sounds swell.)

We came back late.
- (woman) What's late?

Well, very late means very late.
- You only think about work.

Don't start with it.
- You don't care about anything else.

Man, i work here!
- Stay calm.

I am calm. You are not calm!
- Good Morning!

(Stone) How, hospital?
What happened then?

(Woman) For the last examination.
Don't you remember

(Stone) Ah.

I'm under so much pressure here.
My colleague is a strange bird.

I'm sorry. I don't want to stress.
- I'll call you.

(soft, exciting sounds)

Yes, we have from the incident
heard last night.

What is it about the disappearance?
from Theresa, Rolf's girlfriend?

The girl was sick in the head.
No wonder she went into the water.

With suitcase?
- Has the body ever been found?

The river is long.
- And the severed foot?

Times the propeller
seen from a coal van?

Who is katrin

A girl the village
wanted to leave and did it.

The autopsy report has arrived.

And a list of all VW Golfs,
that are reported in the area.

Everything as discussed this morning.
- Mhm.

Tell me,
do you sleep sometimes?

Traces of sperm on the stockings
by Patricia. Group AB.

They have knives
and pliers used.

We have to get this suitcase
by Theresa.

A fisherman has it
found near the ferry pier.

According to forensic medicine
it was a propeller.

(exciting music)

(Bach) Hm ...

Nobody in Theresa’s family knew
that she wanted to go away.

Strange.

That was too
in the sisters room.

We have to speak to the relatives.

(exciting music)

(Bach) Well, Richy, not hunting?

We are looking for the house
from Rolf's girlfriend Theresa.

We can it
not found on the map.

What's in it for me

(Bach growls.)
Man, man, man.

I said
that nobody lives here anymore.

Hey

Should i open

(Flies buzz.)

(soft, exciting sounds)

It looks like they're gone.
From now on equal.

They are gone when their daughter
went into the river.

Wanted her house afterwards
no longer enter.

Heard
they are somewhere in Hungary now.

(exciting sounds)

Do you know the?

This is one of the dead sisters
Patricia.

And that's Theresa.

And Katrin, she's gone too.

And that's Charlie.

"Three angels for Charlie".

(Richy chuckles.)

Do you know where Katrin lived?

(Richy) With the fish.

She was the first
that was gone a few years ago.

Still lived with her mom.

We are about to go to the fish farm.

(Bach) Far out.
Like the other girls.

(melancholic music)

Well, you bitch.
What's your name?

Markus. And you?

Markus.

Granny!

Granny!

(Woman) Three years ago she was gone
as a fair.

She got it from me.

It brings her luck, she said.
- (stone) Nice.

Well, Markus?

Do you want to tell the gentlemen
who that is?

My mom.
- Exactly.

How old was he when she left?

Not even a year.

You didn't say where?

Looking for work in Berlin.

She said she's coming back
when she found something.

She may have changed her mind.
- What?

She could have changed her mind!
- Do you have children?

Nearly. His wife is pregnant.

Was anything unusual
before she disappeared?

She was very sad,

because Charlie left her.

Charlie?
- Yes, Charlie!

The beautiful boy from Bednarz.

(Bach) She still went to school
in Löwitz?

Sure, of course. She wanted to study.

That's why she has additional
at the evening school

learned.

(Bach) May we meet
look at their school supplies?

Thank you very much.

(soft, unsettling sounds)

(Bach) Can we borrow it?

But don't lose it.

She will need it
when she comes back

(dark sounds)

(Pause bell)

(Raven croaks.)

(dark, threatening sounds)

(dark, threatening music)

What are you doing here? Who are you?

Who are you?

It's good is good! It's good, that's enough.
No wrong move.

Did you know Nadine and Patricia?
- Yes.

Like everyone here.
- What relationship did you have?

I was with Patricia once.
But you know that.

Wasn't she a little too young?

Too young for what?
- And Nadine?

We were good friends.
- Did you take pictures of them?

Do I look like a photographer?
- Do you want another one?

Where were you when they disappeared?
- At a friend's place.

Long brown hair, 16 years old?

What's this?
Is that his taste?

Damn wanker!
- Hey!

Is good. Ey is good.
It's good, that's enough. Is okay!

Is okay.
- So where have you been?

With Nicole, all night.
- How do you know them?

I do not know.

And the?
- I don't know either, I'm sorry.

(Stone) You are in the photo.
- I suppose I met her that evening.

Can i go now
- Fuck off.

But that's my knife.

Then get it.
Do me a favor, come.

Hm?

(Stone) They were all the same age.
- Way too young.

They are all
disappeared during the fair

1989, 90, 91 and now.

All after the fall of the wall.
- There was something like that before, believe me.

Murders became popular here
swept under the table.

Didn't exist in socialism.

That would be a big coincidence
when all the girls go away

when something is finally going on here.

Many people are in town for the fair.
More is drunk.

It takes time for someone to go missing.
It's easier to get to know people.

All the girls knew Charlie.
And everyone wanted to leave.

Did you see his tattoo
- Mhm, like in the photo.

tell me
what's the name of the lady in Bleu?

(Bartender) This is Daniela.
- (INAUDIBLE)

(Bach) Do you bring her that?

And a drink of your choice.
- Weird.

He is the top dog here
could have everyone.

Why does he do this?

You look tired. Go to sleep.

How did you know
that my wife is pregnant?

I have good ears.

You can have the car.
I don't care, I'm going on foot.

I would like
two more packets of Red Leaf.

(Woman) Leave that, Carsten.

Oh come on.

Just for fun.
- Stop it! I do not want that.

No, stay away. You're shit!

(Carsten slallies) man,
what are you doing to yourself

I'm sorry, should I take you home?

Hands off. Breathe.

(spherical music)

(He gasps.)

(Stone) Evelin? Listen to me.
Pack your things and leave the city.

(Evelin) What? How so?
- Strange things are happening here.

You may be in ...
You may be in danger.

In danger? What did you do?
- Listen! Leave Hamburg.

Drive to your parents
until I'm back

But the baby can come anytime.

There are only two weeks left
Until the meeting...

Evelin, it's serious.

Take the child and you to safety
Roger that?

Yes.
- Well. Bye.

(dark sounds)

(Beat)

I'm alone.

Come in.

What can you tell me about it?

That the left has nice tits.

This is Nadine and she is dead.

That you had nice tits.

What do you want to know?
- Anything you can tell me about it.

Where did you get that from?
- It doesn't matter.

I am a journalist.
- I laugh my head off.

Here, then send it
to Schwerin in the KTU.

Here.
- I have no time.

What do you want?

Something I don't know yet.

You have been tortured.
- also raped?

I got your story
heard in Hamburg.

With your boss.
You dare something.

A man with ideals.

A few years ago I would have
You posted to the winner.

Ah, it's import. A rare product.

I don't think many here
use this material in the area.

I can definitely tell who.

Mhm. - I want photos
from the bodies of the girls.

From the coroner.

I have a family, man.
They need to feed.

Does your family know what you are doing?

Who thinks
I am the next Stefan Heym.

An author.
Maybe you've heard of him.

Find out.

I think,
I also know your colleague.

You know,
whether he worked in Bautzen?

Say hello to him for me.

(exciting sounds)

(Pastor) "The Lord keep you safe,

the Lord is your shadow
over your right hand ... "

Is there anything worse
than to bury your own children?

I thought you didn't have one?

My condolences.
- My condolences.

I have the passbook
found my daughters.

It was in the glove compartment of the car.

My husband hid it there.

Can we have it

Yes.

(disturbing sounds)

We found that in the car.

What happened, Henner?

I have a lot of debt
and can't pay them.

With whom?

A credit shark.

How so?

I wanted my daughters
get out of this village.

The whole family.

(Bach) Hm ...

You take out a loan
for your daughters.

And then you steal their passbook?

(He locks the door.)

(Outcry)

(He groans.)
- What happened? Tell me.

For the last time. Tell me.

I found a package two months ago.

On the banks of the Neisse.
- What package?

Pills. Ecstasy.
That's how it started.

How much?
- A kilo.

What did you do with it
- Sold. - To whom?

Here in town.
- Where is the money?

Spent it.

For what?
- For the damn car!

Do you think that's why
killed your daughters?

I do not know. They came
to get their money.

Fridge, washing machine
and they already have televisions.

If I don't pay, then
take my car and ferry away.

We must
activate the local police.

They are supposed to be the river
and closely monitor the banks.

Then we may find out
who the guys are.

I take over the river.
- I'll take care of Charlie.

(He groans)

Never send me out the door again.

(Bach gasps.)
- I don't like your methods.

Without these methods
we wouldn't have cracked it.

(exciting, pulsating sounds)

(A car is approaching.)

(dark, pulsating sounds)

(incomprehensible)

(Raven and seagull shouting)

(He groans.)

(He groans and groans.)

(He breathes heavily.)

(Beak rattling)

(Croak)

(Beak rattling)

(Croak)

(exciting, threatening sounds)

Yes, well.
Then see you again.

Nicole is at home.

The mother says she is fine.

The village police are right in the middle of it.
They inform the smugglers for money.

The whole village smokes contraband.

From scrapping and crab coils alone
they cannot live.

Sit down.
- I prefer to stand.

You sit down.

What did you do in the cabin today?
- I was with my girlfriend.

Do you want details?
- Yes I would like to.

Didn't anyone enlighten you?

Who is the man with the hat?

Which man?
- Who went into the house after you.

Except for Nicole and me there was nobody.

You wanted my blood, right?

Then call a doctor. I'm waiting.

You should have brought sleeping clothes.
Because you stay here.

(Shot)
- (glass splinters, brakes squeak.)

(Shot)
- (stone) Are you okay?

(calls) are you okay?
- Damn it, yeah.

(dark, pulsating sounds)

(Bach) A beer and a vodka.
- (Stone) me too.

We are closed.

(Whistle)

(dark, pulsating sounds)

Is good.
Come on, it's not worth it.

Holy shit.
All tires slashed.

You see what happens
if you put up with everything.

Now what?
Still a cuddle class?

Just because it used to work
you can't play Stasi forever.

(Outcry)
- Shut up, sweetie.

(Battle cry)

(They groan and groan.)

(Both gasp.)

(Bach cries out.)

(Both are breathing heavily.)

These are the results of the blood test
by Karl Gross, called Charlie.

His blood type is not the one he is looking for.
This is now a democracy.

If you want to lock someone up,
ask me next time.

(sighs) This country is no longer
what it used to be

People hoped a lot.
And there are disappointments.

The police are on the front line,
as always. So hurry up.

Let's present our sheep
soon the bad wolf.

From Charlie
we can’t get anything out.

(He groans)

(Stein) Isn't there a school today?
- Have a stomach ache.

What did you do last night?

Movie theater.
- Nice.

With who?
- With friends.

Which?
(Telephone rings.)

I'll be right back, darling.

(Mother is on the phone.)
(Bach) Nicole.

You were in the cabin yesterday.
Who else?

Who was the man with the hat?
- Which man?

Where is the injury from?
- Which? - That one.

She is
a rash from my watch.

Leave the nonsense!

Who was the man with the hat?
- Who are you talking about?

(Bach) Where's Charlie?
- No idea.

How? You're sick,
and he doesn't visit you?

(Nicole) He doesn't know.
- Why? - Look at me.

Your mother knows
what are you doing in the cabin, huh?

Does she know about Charlie?

Mummy!
- Tell us who that man was!

Mummy! Mummy!

(Mother) What is it?
- I have to throw up.

(Bach) Ui, ui.

Yes don't worry
we wanted to go anyway.

What you up to?

Do you believe a word
Here, stop.

Do you want to tap her phone?

Do you have the police director
not heard?

Hm? We cannot do that.

No more.
- She is afraid. But why?

Give it to me.

Would you like to rent a hunting lodge?

(exciting, driving music)

(They knock on the gate.)

Come in.
Yes, there are three bedrooms.

Each with two beds.
Take a look around.

I have extra beds,
if you are more people.

There are dog runs, water, electricity.
Everything there.

Have you ever been to the area?
Do you know your way around here?

Is this your house
- Pff! It would be nice.

Here is a bedroom.
Take a look around.

Who last rented the house?

I forgot.
It was closed for a long time.

It is closed season.

(dark sounds)

Mhm, closed season.
I was here yesterday.

And then three people went into the house.

(soft, exciting sounds)

I like the brand.
- Oh yes?

Ouch! You hurt me!
- I don't like to be lied to.

(Mrs. groans.)
- Who was here yesterday?

I do not know him.
I don't know who rents it.

You rent the house to strangers?
- Daily only.

He calls me and deposits the money!

(She screams.)
- Not so loud!

Who is the man with the hat?

Hm?
(dramatic music)

Who?
- Ah!

They pay
so I can stay out

(She whimpers.)

What are you doing there?

(The door opens.)

What are you doing here?

Nothing, everything is fine.

They looked at the house
but sit down go.

Yes, see you again.
- Bye.

Do you know him

The security guard?
- Mhm.

Never seen.
Maybe he's coming over from Poland?

We have to find Charlie.

I have an idea
where it could be

Go play Richy. Fuck off.
(menacing sounds)

Guns.
I'll show you where to go.

What do you want from us?
- We ask the questions. Come on, departure.

(exciting, driving sounds)

(Man) Come on, get down there.

Make yourself comfortable.

(Man) Frik, give them something to drink.
The gentlemen are certainly thirsty.

The pills that Henner found
belonged to me.

There was no handover,
how it should have been.

But I didn't kill anyone.
Certainly no girls.

That is Hugo.

You know his wife Angelique.
She is not a clairvoyant.

At night,
when the girls were murdered

Hugo was on the old farm.

He knows the fountain
and has seen more.

But the information costs something.
- What does that mean?

(Man) You pull the police down the river
and leave us alone. - Okay.

(Man) speech, Hugo.

I saw like a man
threw the bag in the well.

What did he look like?

It was too dark
to see his face.

Otherwise quite normal,
just average.

Why were you there
- I was waiting for a package.

Five in the morning.
The day the girls disappeared.

(Stone) Did you see his car?
- A golf.

Pale blue, almost gray.

For sure?
- He drove right past me.

I even saw the sticker
at the rear window.

What sticker?
- A girl with long hair and a hat.

The hair, how long was it?
So here?

A little shorter.

And the hat? What did it look like?

Large, with a very wide brim.

Like this?

Yes, it gets there.

(Bach) Where have I seen this before?

And what else?
- I do not know more.

I saw what you did.

They'll come and get you.
It is nearly time.

(disturbing sounds)

Stop short.

(exciting, pulsating sounds)

Come over.

She spoke a lot about the nice colleague,
who brought her the stickers.

These towels are also from him.

From the hotel in Berlin,
where he worked.

What was the name of Katrin's colleague?
- Janosch.

Surname?
- Is he from the area?

I do not know.
- Have you ever seen him? - No.

She said a lot about him.

He helped her
when it was with Charlie.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Bye, little Markus.

(Stone) Yes, in the early evening
I am with you.

Janosch Junckers.
No longer works at HOTEL KOSMOS.

Was fired.
But he still has things there.

I'm going tomorrow morning.
- nightcap?

No, I still want to get in touch with me
because of the photos.

Maybe it's a trail.

Well. Do not let anyone stop you.

No way.

Meli, is there anything else?
I'm hungry.

And thirst.

(soft, exciting sounds)

The photos of the girls
were made with such a material.

There is only one shop in the area,
who sells this brand.

Where?
. Yes! WHERE?

Where are my autopsy pictures?

Unfortunately I don't have that yet.
- What do you have then?

ADLER FOTO in Rostock.

Someone ordered it there
every month against prepayment.

Who?
- Apparently a "handsome guy".

A guy named Carlos or Charlie.

Mh, they also develop there,

but didn't want to say
what kind of photos it is.

Certainly no confirmation pictures.
- In this photo...

It's not just the girls on it.

The one who took the picture
can be seen in the mirror.

You don't recognize him because of the lightning.
Can it be helped?

Find out who that is.
Then you will get your photos.

But I need the negative for that.
There is no other way.

Trust me.
- Would you trust someone like you?

Great Indian word of honor!

And can he sleep at night?
- Hm?

Your colleague, Bach.
I know where I saw him.

1978. He was with the State Security.

He has
arrested my best friend Stefan.

Stefan was also a journalist,
wanted to write the truth.

Your colleague's weapon

always sat pretty relaxed.

Stefan wanted the whole nudge
not put up with that.

Maybe fidgeted a bit.

And before the gates of Bautzen,
then Bach shot him.

Resistance to state authority.

There were plenty of witnesses
but Bach didn't get a punishment.

Only his medals.

And now he's dirty
the Stasi pig. And that makes me happy.

(Bach snores softly.)

(soft, exciting sounds)

(dark sounds)

(Car approaches.)

I'm so sorry. I did not know...

Could have been a trap.
- I went to Nicole.

I need to know,
what was wrong with my daughters.

You are...

They were close friends.

And?
- Charlie took her to the cabin.

There he tied her to the bed,
went out

and came back with someone.

Can she describe him?
- She only knows that he smelled good.

Some special perfume.
And he had very soft hands.

She kept saying that.

Charlie took pictures of her
and threatened

showing the photos all over the place
when she tells something.

At night, in the
my two daughters were murdered

Charlie was with Nicole, but

not all night.

Would she tell a judge that too?
- She couldn't even tell you.

(Stein) I'm going to Berlin.

Maybe the killer has it
worked in the hotel.

Take me with you.
- I can't just take you with me.

But I ... I am a witness.
I could be useful.

What do you want in Berlin?

You're welcome. Please, I have to go there.

You're welcome.
I am responsible for the death of my daughters.

(He groans.)

(He groans)

(soft, unsettling sounds)

I have my daughters

over and over again
told about my dream.

I wanted to go out into the big city.

Acting, dancing, singing,

Waiters.

The main thing is to get out of this crap.

I only infected it
with my stories.

They couldn't wait
to get out of here.

(exciting music)

My dream killed her.

Good day. Patrick Stein.

The hotel manager is waiting for me.
- One moment please.

Katharina, please wait
here on me.

I come with.

The guy was weird. He had
a problem with a female guest.

What problem?
- He got down to the girl.

She's a police officer, I think.

And that was why he was gone so quickly.
Just because.

(Stone) Janosch Junckers, yes.

When was it?

Mhm.

And he didn't
seen in Dallgow?

Friends family?

Understand.

I thank you.

(Stein hangs up and dials a number.)

Melanie? Patrick Stein here.
Get my colleague on the phone.

What? He is still sleeping?

Well then go upstairs
and knock, yes?

It is important,
that he experiences the following ...

(disturbing sounds)

Katharina Kraft
has made a new statement.

Charlie wasn't all night
with Nicole.

A stranger
mistreated her in the castle.

His hands are very soft
and wears an expensive perfume.

Yes, that's all.

Sorry.
Show me Junckers' room?

The staff rooms are also in the basement.
Room seven.

You are lucky. Is currently empty.
Do you find it alone? I have appointments.

(Beat)

Mr. Bach,
I'm coming to your room now.

Mr. Bach?
- (Door is opened.)

What do you want?
- I should give it to you.

(Announcement) The demise of the VEB
would be the decline ...

Where can I find the VEB?
- Comes every morning ...

(whispers) When does that stop?

(sobs) When does that stop?

When does that stop?

When?

I dont know.

When does that stop?

When does that stop?

When does that stop?

When ... when does that stop?

(Boos)

(Swabian) You know
that your business since the fall of the wall

against western competition
must fight.

Steel prices are in the past
fell 30 percent for six months.

We bought the factory
to save them.

To do this, we have to cut costs
and adjust wages.

Otherwise the company will not survive.
- (booing)

(Charlie) You can't do that to us!

You can't do that
you pigs!

You pigs!
- This is our company!

Mr. Langhans, the new owner,
offers you

to work for 20 percent less.

Then he can get all the jobs.

If you don't want that, you can go.
- (tumult)

Are you crazy?
Damn cutthroat!

Give us our VEB again!

That's all here
just a fucking capitalist mess!

(Everyone shouts.)

(exciting sounds)

Mr. Langhans!
Forgive me. I want to introduce myself.

Markus Bach. Criminal Investigation Department.
- Karl Langhans.

Owner here for three months.
- I come for the murders.

Oh yes, the dead sisters.

Also. And the others.

I am at your disposal at any time
if I could help. Goodbye.

(menacing sounds)

We have to go back.

(melancholic sounds)

(Honking)

(Truck main)

(Impact)

(exciting sounds)

Yes OK.

Yes, don't worry.

Mhm. Thank you, Manuel. Thank you.

According to the foreman, there is no golf
on the factory premises

or the Langhans estate.

Neither registered nor unregistered.
The number plates are probably fake.

Start a search immediately.
- The mother says Nicole is in the cinema.

It is in danger and you do nothing!
- I'm calling Karl Langhans.

We'll do a blood test tomorrow morning.
It's too late today.

The girl
I'll check right away.

You shouldn't call him
but approve a blood test.

This evening. Right now.

I call him and order it
for tomorrow to the commissioner's office.

There will be no problems.

We also need a comparison
by Langhans and Charlie Gross.

You really are a stubborn.

I beg your pardon?

They have only evidence, no evidence.

Your partner saw a man with a hat,
then nothing.

That's right, isn't it?
- Yes that's right. Yes.

Can you see it.
I also wear a hat.

Am I suspicious now?

If you provide evidence
get your approval.

And now please go.

I will inform you,
as soon as I know something.

You protect him.

What?

You don't know what's going on here.

I know.

Just like everywhere else.

Hm ... you should be more careful
with what you say and do.

Aren't you going to be a father?

Now out.

Out now!

(menacing sounds)

Say why don't you say anything?
Are you in a blanket with them?

I just want to solve this case.
Come on, let's find the girl.

You are like everyone else. You want,
that everything continues as before.

I know what you did
1978 in Bautzen.

(pressed) God ...
- You know nothing. You don't know anything.

The guy who told you that
just want to set the mood.

(weak) Let go of me.

It was my colleague.

When the dissident attacked him

he freaked out and got him
shot in the melee.

I have the greaser's friend
just held on.

I didn't even pull my gun.

Patrick ...

If you build shit
I cover you too.

Is that wrong?

Do you see.

Come over.

Let's go to Nicole.
- (rumbling)

(Band, Nicole's mother)
... he's too old to be the father.

(He continues to rewind the tape.)

(Niche) tell them
I do everything you want.

(He rewinds.)

(Telephone dial tones)

(Dial tone)

(Man) yes?
- Here is Nicole. What will happen to Berlin?

(Man) There are problems with the contract.
They don't hire anyone.

(Nicole) Talk to them. Tell them,
I do everything you want.

I have to get out of here.
I can't take it anymore.

(Man) We should meet.
In half an hour at the usual place.

She called this number.

The hunting lodge.

(exciting music)

No, it’s okay.

(They bang on the door.)
- Come on!

(Stone) Stop!

Stand still.
- Ah!

Who still lives in this house, huh?

Nobody. Ah!
- Who?

The guard.
- His name?

Finn.

Where's Janosch?
- I do not know. - Patrick.

Stop it.

Sit down.

Did you know the two sisters
Nadine and Patricia?

Before they were murdered
and tortured here.

With a hunting knife.

And since that wasn't enough for them,
with a pair of pliers.

Their nipples were torn off
Fingers cut off

Objects stuck in vagina and anus,
until they bleed

Do you know how much pain you can take
before you pass out?

I did not know that.
I really didn't know that.

(whispers) Sure.

Hey look at me

What is the name of the guardian?

Janosch.

He was looking for work
and I gave it to him.

I was friends with his mother.
He had to hide, he said.

Hide from what?
- I do not know. He was totally changed.

Karl Langhans, do you know him?
- Yes.

Has he ever been in this house?
- When guests come, I'm not here!

Where's Janosch?

Where is he?

Hm?
- (She whimpers.)

In the abandoned farm
Towards Dammhorst.

(dark, driving sounds)

Open up, police!

(A horse snorts.)

(He breathes heavily.)

Markus!

Look here.

An employment contract between Patricia
and the Hotel am Alex in Berlin.

And more contracts from other girls.
Oh how many ...

Hey The car is out there.
He's leaving!

(dark, driving sounds)

Careful, man!
Everything here is slippery from the rain.

Attention!

Crap.

Pointless! We're stuck!
- What's nearby?

Actually only the sewage treatment plant.
- Fine, take us there.

(dark, driving sounds)

(Shot)
- (Seagulls screech.)

(Shot)

Get lost!
- (Richy groans.)

(Shot)

(Shot)

(Bach breathes heavily.)

(Shot)

(Shot)
- (He groans.)

(Shot)

(dark, threatening sounds)

(He groans.)

(menacing sounds)

(Dark sounds swell.)

Ah ... Ah!

Ah!

(soft, dark sounds)

(mystical song)

(Bach) Yes, come on.

(Ravens croak.)

(Tumult)

(unintelligible screams)

(Worker) On the won strike!
But we showed them!

(Cheers, applause)

(cheerful pop music)

(Music: "In the car in front of me"
by Henry Valentino and Uschi)

Stop! Stop, police!

May I introduce: the heroines
the Mecklenburg revolution

Western Pomerania.

You won the strike
and now get more wages.

And this is my friend Patrick.

The hero from the newspaper.

Look, a handsome villain.

You got a kiss too.
- Markus ...

Excuse me.

Keep that and don't lose it.

For your child.

Do you promise me that?
- Promised.

So now let's celebrate.

(Music: "In the car in front of me")

You are now a winner.

Thank you.
- Not for that.

Here, your photos.

The man next to Charlie in the photo ...
I tried everything.

You cannot recognize him.
The face is completely flashed.

To Stefan Heym!

To Stefan.

(Music: "In the car in front of me")

You were misinformed with him.
It is not his fault.

It was his colleague.

The many witnesses ...

I was one of them.

Present for you.

I have my connections.

They called him "the raven".

He has in Bautzen
people tortured for years.

(distorted, booming sounds)

(soft, threatening sounds)

(Stone) I want to leave.

(Meli) Your wife called.
You should report. - Yes, thank you.

Hey Hello.
- (Evelin, matt) Hello.

Nice that you are back home.
- I did it.

Our kid.

We have a girl.

(sighs) A girl?

And everything healthy?
- Yes.

(She laughs.)

Well.
- She looks like you.

I am so sorry,
that I wasn't there.

All right.
You are a hero for that now.

Evelin, I ...

I i...

I'm coming ... I'm coming home, right?

I'm here tonight.

Drive carefully.

Can you take me to Rostock?

I'm not going to Rostock.

Not?

Special leave.

God, Patrick. Your child?

That’s great. Come here!

What is?

Anyway, I'm not going to Rostock.

Aha.

Well then until the days.

See you soon.

(Stone closes the door.)
- Greetings.

(mystical song)

(powerful electronic music)
