Of course we'd much rather have shown you the North American premiere of Philipp Leinemann's BLAME GAME, but Covid-19 had other plans. Still, we can appreciate the visual skill of Christian Stangassinger, the award-winning cinematographer of what would have been the final film screening in our GOETHE FILMS series "The End of Truth". He had already proven his strong vision in WE WERE KINGS and TV series TEMPLE. For this entangled political thriller, it's all in the player's perspectives and capturing the expressiveness of the solid cast featuring Ronald Zehrfeld ("Phoenix", "Barbara"), Alexander Fehling ("Homeland", "Labyrinth of Lies"), Antje Traue ("Dark"), Claudia Michelsen ("The Tower"), Axel Prahl ("Grill Point"):
