Deadly Silence

A homeless man has been murdered. Surveillance footage indicates that three teenagers — Mira, Fabian, and Jakob — were involved in the crime. The 16-year-olds respond to the questions posed by their worried parents with increasing aggression and apathy. As the evidence against the kids appears overwhelming, conflicts escalate between the different parents as well as with their alienated children. Gradually, the truth comes to light, revealing the full extent of the crime. This film with multiple protagonists sketches an enthralling and disturbing psychological profile of people in a moral state of emergency. (Filmfest München)
