Ritter - 28 - Hitchcock und Frau Wernicke

Irmgard Wernicke (Barbara Morawiecz) lives alone in a small rented apartment. The elderly retiree talks to her budgies, watches TV and watches the factory floor across the street. One morning, the homicide squad received Mrs Wernicke's call for help: she firmly asserted that a woman had been murdered in the house across the street. Ritter (Dominic Raacke) and Stark (Boris Aljinovic) talk to the old lady and a little later start investigating at the alleged crime scene. The wine merchant Benkelmann (Hans-Jochen Wagner), who lives there, provides friendly information – but there is no corpse or traces of a murder. Nevertheless, Ritter and Stark are more and more fascinated by the portrayal of the amiable old woman, who reminds Ritter of his mother.
The inspectors also get to know Mrs. Wernicke's nurse Renate Müller (Lotte Ohm) and the civil servant Timo (Robert Höller) - the only people with whom she has close contact. When it came out that Ms. Wernicke saw Hitchcock's film "Window on the Courtyard" on television on the alleged night of the murder, doubts arose: did the old lady get infected and just make up her statements? But why is Benkelmann trying to hide contact with the attractive Ella Leiser (Jenny Schily)? Shortly thereafter, Irmgard Wernicke disappears, but female body parts appear. Knight and Stark are dismayed. Did they misjudge the situation and should they have protected the old lady?

The Ministry of Time

The Ministry of Time

The Ministry of Time, a newly established government department, is gathering ‘expats' from across history in an experiment to test the viability of time-travel. Commander Graham Gore (an officer on Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 Arctic expedition) is one such figure rescued from certain death – alongside an army captain from the fields of the Somme, a plague victim from the 1600s, a widow from revolutionary France, and a soldier from the seventeenth century.

The expats are placed with 21st century liaisons, known as 'bridges', in unlikely flatshares. Gore has to learn about contemporary life from scratch: from air travel to industrial warfare, from feminism to Spotify, from cinema to indoor plumbing; and he must negotiate cohabiting with the ambitious modern woman who works as his bridge. After an awkward beginning, the pair start to find pleasure and comfort in each other's company, developing a relationship that is simultaneously tender, intense and profoundly unprofessional; and the expats, adrift in a new era, form friendships that ground and support them in the lonely 21st century, where they have outlived everyone they ever knew and loved.

When a deeper conspiracy at the Ministry begins to reveal itself, the bridge must reckon with what she does next. Will she save or sacrifice the exiled misfits she has come to care for so deeply?
