With that title, I was surprised not to find some corny love story, but a film centred around the 'Schweigepflicht' (legally prescribed professional discretion) of lawyers, wrapped in a murder story. It also deals with personal integrity and loyalty as plot motifs. Anyhow, little me enjoyed it. Aber gute Guete, Gerd, hast du bei Murnau oder im Bundesarchiv eingebrochen, oder wo kommen diese Unmengen bisher unerhaeltlicher Filme her? Du laedst die ja schneller hoch, als wir sie gucken koennen, Mann :) Du hast da uebrigens ein paar Duplikate, was ja auch kein Wunder ist - ich haett auch laengst…
