ZDF Thriller Airing on Monday: The Devil's Craftsman, Angel Maker
In the heart of Denmark, a gripping investigation unfolds in the thriller "DK 2023." Directed by Esben Tønnesen and Julie R. Ølgaard, this 85-minute film follows a detective duo as they delve into the dark world of a serial killer.
At the forefront of the investigation is Laura, an IT specialist who has been suspended from duty due to psychosis. Her partner, Jesper, is an empathetic detective, and together, they make an intriguing team. Laura's blunt and insensitive demeanor contrasts sharply with Jesper's compassionate approach, creating a dynamic that drives the narrative forward.
The victims of this sadistic serial killer are found with their abdomens cut open, and a data storage device implanted within. The contents of these devices reveal patterns in the killings that pique Laura's interest. The killer seems to be both extremely sadistic and highly intelligent, aiming to punish their victims in a mission-driven manner.
As Laura helps with the investigation, her personal life becomes increasingly entwined with the case. Her significant marital issues and suspension from duty add layers of complexity to her character, making her a compelling protagonist.
The film also stars Roland Møller as Jesper, Julie R. Ølgaard as Laura, Stine Stengade as Sandra, Marc Harpsøe as Ludvig, and Christopher Læssø as Marc. Andrea Vagn Jensen plays the character Grethe in the film.
The "DK 2023" trailer is now available, promising a thrilling ride filled with suspense and intrigue. The FSK rating for the film is 16, indicating a mature audience.
Despite the serial killer's identity remaining a mystery, the duo's investigation is reminiscent of the Nordic-Noir thriller "The Investigation." However, the series murderers they pursue in "DK 2023" have not been named or fully identified in the available data.
With its chilling atmosphere, intricate plot, and talented cast, "DK 2023" is set to be a must-watch for thriller enthusiasts. Catch the film in cinemas near you and unravel the mysteries hidden within.
