Germany, it was towards the end of the Eighties in a particularly home related to spot advertising, “Germany is beautiful, its landscapes typical of the buildings of the world famous”. And thus, the sought-after audience also realized how beautifully typical of the world famous really, shone the sun on the landscapes and buildings, as the clouds were about banned. The poet should be, we don’t know that it is only since the white beer advertising, it should be with the Idyll is soon over.

It is, therefore, evil in the air, as the sky over a Western tourist, darkened in a jagged massif of the Eastern Harz mountains. And lo and behold: soon after the young woman settles down on the edge of a cliff, it will be overthrown by someone in the depth, while the victim detects, but not the audience. The ZDF begins-two-piece – “Walpurgis night”, in which the Federal Republican LKA 1988 and for the first time in the German-German division, the Chapter identified a multi-state case of death, the GDR people’s police.

this unique feature is sent, the Hessian chief Commissioner Nadja Paulitz to the system of the enemy, to find the murderer of their compatriot. The result is considered to be a clean and dramatic – a more solid piece of crime-entertainment, the man considered to be purely atmospheric, but because of the unexpected Showdowns until the very end. But Silke floor Bender wrestling as a capitalist police-Import often, arg melodramatic to a justice that seeks, apparently, your socialist colleague Karl Albers (Ronald Zehrfeld). But there, at the foot of the witch mountain “Brocken”, however, all Affected and Involved, to reveal and to points of contact on the case, appears to be exactly this Minute-by-Minute likely.

Clouded by times nostalgic, at times dräuendem overpowering sound Walpurgis night is immersed, but also constantly in the dreary half-light, because of the enigmatic society Thriller purely socio-culturally seen – as so often in politically charged Vorwende-profession is more than just another crime series. Because as at the time of the fall of the Berlin wall movies serve before the time of the historical Wallpaper also 30 years later, the self-affirmation of a Nation that doubt enduring to yourself (ver -).

“So, the phones we have played here already,”

As Götz George, during the Monday demonstrations in Leipzig and elsewhere in the world politically separated twins “Schulz & Schulz”, you make the GDR also the promised (West German)Land of tasty. The Association of euphoric varnish got with each of the five parts of a few cracks; but what runs from the Republic escape-Comedy “Sedwitz” over the espionage drama “The same sky” to the everyday melodrama “honey women” by real-socialist fictions, is a gray-beige tone that you want to go diving in the Watch instinctively to the Federal Republican Trough.

Regardless of the growing number of ritually draped bodies of Women is good, so also these English-German encounter to the stylisation of the plan of economic dreariness. Secretary of the interior in 1988, just “miss” and the house facilities are so barren, that woman needs to color with the “black forest clinic” beautiful. At the same time, but Director Hans Steinbichler (writer: Thorsten silver & Christoph Wettcke) remains the unwritten TV law-abiding, totalitarianism of the left and the right only two offenders among all the Victims. In this case, the aasige Parteibonze Pölz (Godehard Giese), in competence with the material area Manager Wieditz (Jörg Schüttauf).

Even better, you would have seen, however, as bureaucrats of various morals and of government to operate systems on the precipice of blatant series of murders. For example, when captain Wieditz without political Pathos to the arrogant Western colleague, “so, the phones we have here.” Unfortunately, the ZDF has decided to overlay all human criminalist. But as a mystery Thriller that is also quite worth seeing.
