World premiere of ‘Oderbruch’ at the 40th Munich Film Festival

The Oderbruch, a former inland delta on the Polish border and the most sparsely populated region in Germany, becomes the scene of a monstrous serial murder case. A mountain of bodies and bones from over a hundred victims is found in a field. The seemingly motiveless, arbitrary murders go back decades. The dead have only one thing in common: all of them have been drained of all their blood. There is no trace of the killer.
