Hijack Stories
Oliver Schmitz
Far from Hollywood eye candy, this movie has a taste of South African authenticity. No high budget action, no pretenses, just the minimum needed to support the plot that takes the audience on a journey across various aspects of contemporary South African society, most often in a humorous way. Critics about car chases and special effects are completely missing the point of that movie. It mostly revolves about the culture shock of an educated black taking a plunge into Soweto gangster culture. I found the characters quite attaching and I felt refreshed after viewing this exotic piece. I recommend it if you are looking for a simple and out of the ordinary movie.

A supermarket operator from Ahlbeck (Usedom) is found dead, naked, in the spa gardens of neighboring Swinemünde in Poland. Inspector Julia Thiel and her Polish colleague Marek Wozniak are investigating together. Only initially does everything look like a sexual offense. The woman wanted to meet one of her cashiers to offer her a new apartment in Poland in exchange for an old, run-down house on the German side. However, it is said that the inspection of the apartment never took place. A case that particularly challenges Julia Thiel.
