This German cable TV movie is quite excellent, good enough to have been a theatrical release even. Baumeister gives one of her best performances, totally believable as the now grown up victim of parental child abuse bit by bit coming to understand what she went through, but finding so difficult to say - and what her own young daughter may be going through in the same family household where she is in custody. Baumeister's terrific transformation will get under your skin. Sat1, and all the other German (cable/national) networks for that matter, really ought to release all their Baumeister TV movies on DVD knowing that she's one of Germany's most popular actresses. Really beyond me why they don't, given that these 1990s and 2000s productions so rarely have another showing on TV.
