FINSTERWORLD
synopsis
Pedicurist Claude Petersdorf harbours a special fondness for the feet of his female clients and reveals himself to Ms. Sandberg who lives in an old people's home. Documentary filmmaker Franziska Feldenhoven wants to make a film about the realities of German council housing which proves to be beyond boring. She is so focused on her project that she completely overlooks her partner, policeman Tom, and his fascinating secret. Evil enters and forever changes the life of a hermit, happily living in harmony with nature. Inga and Georg are aging show-offs, first snobbish, then lucid, and ultimately vulnerable. During a school trip to the memorial site of a concentration camp, popular student Maximilian humiliates outsiders Dominik and Natalie and sets up a cruel trap for his teacher, Mr. Nickel...
