Clash of the Bloodsuckers in the Series titled "Soco Wismar: Vampire Warfare"
In the German city of Wismar, a pervasive sense of unease surrounds the cancellation of the theatrical production of Nosferatu. This comes after the lead actor, René Schröder, was found dead – a brutal homicide with no clear motive or suspect.
The SOKO team, led by Chief of Police Reuter, is investigating the case, but the lines between reality and performance have grown blurred among the characters involved. The director of the troupe extolled Schröder's performance, while his co-star, young actress Ellen, was both professionally and personally drawn to him. Even his business partner, real-life cargo bike partner Carl Becker, spoke fondly of their friendship. Was Schröder's fame a potential factor in his untimely death?
The investigation plunges into the world of illusion and reality as another Nosferatu allegedly surfaces in the city, or perhaps the inspectors themselves are seeing things.
With a 49-minute runtime and set in 2022, the crime series Nosferatu is directed by Alexander Sascha Thiel. It premiered with this intriguing first episode, rated FSK 12. The principal cast includes Udo Kroschwald, Nike Fuhrmann, Dominic Boeer, Stella Hinrichs, Gustavs Gailus, Katharine Blaschke, and Paula Moorkamp.
Despite the swirling questions surrounding the murder of René Schröder, no suspect has yet been identified in the ongoing investigation. The team must remain steadfast to uncover the truth behind this chilling turn of events.
Other movies-and-tv productions in Wismar may find their grip on the audience weakened as murmurs of Nosferatu's eerie atmosphere intermingle with the real-life tragedy, casting a shadow over the entertainment industry in the city. Ellen, increasingly intrigued by the parallels between the stage performance and Schröder's life, seeks solace in other movies-and-tv projects, hoping to deliver powerful performances that honor her late co-star and alleviate the intense unease that has gripped her.
