The Chilling Reality of a Finger's Price
Director Kathrin Schmidt brings to life a harrowing tale of murder, adapted from a screenplay by Carola M. Lowitz and Christian Limmer, based on the crime novels by Klaus-Peter Wolf. With shocking twists and turns, this thriller keeps you guessing till the end.
Our story starts with Picco von Groote's convincing portrayal of Ann Kathrin Klaasen, a commissioner who finds herself caught up in a twisted game of justice. Sven Schelker impresses as Dr. Bernhard Sommerfeldt, a charismatic outsider who bewitches the town but has dark secrets buried deep within.
As Sommerfeldt, we learn that he is more than just a local doctor. The townspeople trust him implicitly, but the fates of his patients seem to touch him in profound ways. Among them is little Frithjof, a boy suffering under his father's abuse, played by a child actor, and Beate, his teacher and Sommerfeldt's romantic interest, acted by Sinja Dieks.
Haunting Memories and Hidden Pasts
Living in this quaint town, it's no surprise that whispers of a lurking menace grow louder when the father of Frithjof becomes the victim of a brutal night-time assault by a masked attacker. Commissioner Klaasen questions the traumatized father, who tries to claim his injury was caused by accident while intoxicated. However, she suspects the truth runs much deeper.
The situation becomes even more complex when a murder occurs. The victim is Beate's former lover, a music producer named Michael Pelz, who met a grisly end. A young talent, Jana, approached him with the hopes of making a name for herself in the music industry. Instead, she found herself in a trap, drugged and abused. Pelz had been blackmailing Beate for years, using an incriminating sex video to keep her silent. When Frithjof's father ultimately meets his end, questions about Sommerfeldt's true intention arise.
The police suspect that Sommerfeldt seeks vigilante justice, but they don't have enough evidence to arrest him. However, Sommerfeldt receives a shocking ally, and the story takes a surprising twist.
