- DirectorEd HerzogStarsSebastian BezzelSimon SchwarzLisa Maria Potthoff"Feelings always suck." Lower-Bavarian village police officer Franz Eberhofer internalized this deeply-felt wisdom long ago. That is why he suffers only moderately when his girlfriend Susi distances herself. Even in the event of the neighboring Mooshammerhof burns down, Eberhofer does not break out into unrest. Even the fact that an attractive woman from Munich was killed in the fire does not irritate Franz. What really throws him off balance is that the doctor attests that his lifestyle is hazardous to his health and puts him on a strict diet: lots of vegetables, and no more red meat--certainly no more meatloaf. Tough conditions for the following murder investigation, which involves a new hotel or jealousy. Suspicious figures include Ms. Grimm, the victim's mother, a gay couple, and local soccer god Buengo. Unfortunately, Susi tasked Eberhofer with looking after their toddler Pauli for a while, which hinders police work. Worse, self-appointed private detective Rudi Birkenberger rushes to the rescue to advise on nutrition, education, and investigation without being asked. Can Franz get through this whole dilemma without those strengthening liver meat rolls?
- DirectorDaniel AlfredsonStarsCarla JuriGemma ChanJamie SivesWhat is a human life worth? How is it possible that a woman like Agnes could agree to kill another human being? Is it the money? Or are there other forces at play? A funeral. A young widow and two adult children. Agnes is burying her much older husband and the children are his, not hers. Agnes senses that someone is watching her and glimpses a woman roughly her own age standing nearby. Within seconds, the woman is gone. They were once very close, Agnes and Henny. A friendship both rewarding and demanding, which ended in disaster. Now Henny seeks reconciliation. But Agnes seems cautious. Agnes is completely thrown by Henny's proposal. Henny is married to Peter, and asks Agnes to help her murder him. She's prepared to pay good money and also to let Agnes choose the manner in which Peter is to die. Agnes realizes that the past has caught up with her and that she has no choice. What really happened between Agnes and Henny in Bruges all those years ago? How could it be that two people who enjoyed one another's company so much, could end up hurting each other so badly? They, who had loved each other so much.

- StarsAnnette FrierAnna SchudtElena UhligIt has been 25 years since they graduated from high school or could have done it if they had not graduated beforehand, had done laps of honor or simply failed. Now they see each other again at the class reunion, the former top of the class, the former genius, the ex-class brat, the ex-class ass, meanwhile in their mid-40s, and suddenly face the people with whom they dreamed their future life back then . But what has actually happened in reality now? With others, but also with yourself? Annette Frier, Charly Hübner, Anja Kling, Jeanette Hain, Nina Kunzendorf, Fabian Hinrichs, Oliver Wnuk, Elena Uhlig, Kida Khodr Ramadan, Anna Schudt, Christian Kahrmann, Marek Harloff, Aurel Manthei, Nadja Zwanziger, Nicole Kersten, Guido Renner, Björn Jung: That is the impressive list of actors and actresses who came to play with 17 former classmates without a text or a well-written story. Burghart Klaußner slipped into the role of the teacher who doesn't want to miss a reunion with his old students. Without knowing the full life path of all the other characters, the actors improvised for two days on the basis of their role profiles and their own life experience, they got into unpredictable situations, astonished the others - and probably sometimes also themselves - with quick-wittedness and dramaturgical imagination and developed in this way moments and stories full of humor, melancholy and truthfulness.
