Das letzte Schweigen

I saw this for the first time recently n got pleasantly surprised.

Fans of Marshland, True Detective S1 n S3, The Treatment, Memories of Murder, etc will definitely enjoy this.

In 1986 an 11-year-old schoolgirl, is raped and murdered by Peer Sommer while his friend Timo watches silently from the passenger seat of his car.

Timo leaves after Pia's murder, to Sommer's dismay.

In 2009, exactly 23 years later, a 13-year-old girl goes missing and her bicycle is discovered in the same spot where the first crime happened.

Senior detective Mittich, who investigated the original murder takes an interest in the new case, but he is blocked from participating by the new senior detective.

At times the movie is very poignant considering so many characters are shattered n everyone gave good performances.

But Wotan Wilke Möhring who played Timo gave an outstanding performance.

I wud have easily rated it a 9 but for two reasons i didn't.

The 1982 murder was never solved for us audiences.

And why did the cops didnt try to locate the phone's location of Sinikka? She was carrying a phone n when her dad tried calling her, the killer threw the phone.
