We will be premiering Dominik Graf‘s 10-part Berlin thriller on love, death, and the Russian mafia over three suspenseful nights in our series GOETHE FILMS @ TIFF Bell Lightbox in May."Addictive."

"Has there been a better German crime series in recent years? We can’t think of one." (TV Movie)
“A milestone in German TV history.” (Die Zeit)
“A great epic, with a flood of stories that keep you rooted to your seat.”
“A daring story about duty and guilt --but above all about the difficulty of positioning oneself as an individual in a world where one is defined by oneʼs origins.”
