Synopsis
In the 1930s, chaos and misery reign over Düsseldorf as the Nazis
begin their campaign of terror. But the city is afflicted by
another menace, a serial killer who writes a letter to the police every
time he murders a young woman. Who would suspect Peter Kuerten, a
man who is so mild and unassuming? His only passion is Anna, a
singer in a café, but she ignores him and makes fun of
him. One day, Peter meets two young country girls, Paula and
Rosa. Not long afterwards, Paula is found dead and Rosa,
the prime witness to this murder, is herself killed a few days
later. Unaware of Peter’s dark exploits, Anna becomes his
lover. But then she finds one of the messages he sends to the
police...
