Todesspiel (1997–1997)

The dramatic weeks of the "German Autumn 1977", the RAF kidnapping of employer president Hanns Martin Schleyer and the hijacking of the Lufthansa plane "Landshut" by a Palestinian terrorist commando kept the republic in suspense almost 30 years ago. With archive footage, eyewitness interviews and staged game scenes, the two-part film "Todesspiel" by Heinrich Breloer recalls the events of those 45 days and was euphorically celebrated after it was first broadcast almost 10 years ago.
