Deadly Family Gathering in the Mountains - A Murderous Christmas: Dark Comedy Unfolds in *Dahlmann’s Last Christmas* on ZDF
A new German-Austrian holiday crime-comedy, Dahlmann’s Last Christmas, will premiere on ZDF this Monday evening. Directed by Isabel Braak and written by Magnus Vattrodt, the film blends dark humour, family drama, and classic whodunit elements with a star-packed cast.
The story unfolds at a secluded mountain estate, where the wealthy Dahlmann family gathers for Christmas. But when patriarch Alfons Dahlmann—a meat and sausage tycoon planning to retire and sell his company—is found stabbed to death, suspicion falls on his trapped relatives. A raging snowstorm cuts them off from the outside world, leaving them to turn on one another.
With its blend of crime, humour, and festive chaos, Dahlmann’s Last Christmas offers a fresh twist on holiday entertainment. The film’s premiere on ZDF promises a night of suspense, laughter, and family intrigue for viewers.
