Der namenlose Tag is Volker Schlöndorff’s first-ever TV crime drama…

Ludwig Winter visits retired crime investigator Jakob Franck and refers to the death of his 17-year-old daughter, Esther, a death filed as a suicide. Winter is convinced that it was murder and asks Franck to reopen the case. In flashbacks we learn that Esther was found hanging from a tree in a park. Forced to bring the bad news to Natalie’s mother, Franck ended up consoling her for the next seven hours. Later, this mother, unable to live with such a tragedy, commits suicide. Several characters bring the plot forward: Sandra (best girlfriend), Jan (boyfriend), Jordan (small boy), Rosie (older lady). Franck habitually solves cases by lying on his comfortable bed and staring at the ceiling until an idea pops into his head.Read More »

Quote:
Lisa is moving out of the apartment she has shared with Mara and into one where she will live alone. As boxes are transported, walls painted white, and furniture is assembled, underlying problems in need of fixing are revealed, a to-do list expands, and desires and needs flair up… A tragicomic catastrophe film. A poetic ballad about change and transience which invites the viewer into a panopticon of forms of human relationships, meandering between a study of everyday life, a fairy-tale and a psychological portrait of a brittle world. After The Strange Little Cat, this is the second part of a planned trilogy about human togetherness.Read More »
