The Silence

Streaming video - 2010

On a hot summer day, a girl named Pia is brutally murdered in a field of wheat by Peer, as his helpless friend Timo watches. Exactly 23 years later, another 13-year-old, Sinikka, is missing, her bicycle abandoned in the same spot, leading police to suspect the same killer may be at work again. Recently widowed detective David and his colleague Janna struggle to solve the mystery of these parallel crimes with the help of Krischan, the retired investigator of the unresolved case. Winner of a Directors to Watch Award at the **Palm Springs International Film Festival**. _”An exemplary German-language thriller, a complex and disturbing examination of guilt, violence and psychological torment that chills us to the core not once but two times ov...er.”_ - Kenneth Turan, ***The Los Angeles Times***
