The story of Bruno Lüdke: a serial killer who, unnoticed for a long time, killed his way through the genocidal Nazi empire and was ultimately silently done away with by his captors to avoid a scandal. Today no longer tenable from a historical point of view, but still a masterpiece as a sarcastic and sometimes sardonic thriller about two-facedness. (Locarno Festival)
