Kino im Salon | Erlesene Filme: Sörensen hat Angst

In the organizer's words:

Sörensen finally wants peace and quiet - but his anxiety travels with him. Chief Inspector Sörensen was on sick leave for two years, plagued by an anxiety disorder that made his life in Hamburg increasingly uninhabitable. When he is transferred to the Frisian village of Katenbüll, he hopes for a fresh start: less noise, fewer people, less pressure.

But as soon as Sörensen enters his new territory, the idyll is shattered. The mayor is found shot dead in the stables - executed with three shots. The village community remains silent, the evidence is thin on the ground, and behind the supposedly peaceful façade, abysses open up. While Sörensen tries to keep his inner panic attacks in check, he also has to find out what really happened in Katenbüll - and how much violence a place that considers itself harmless can conceal.

Director and leading actor Bjarne Mädel tells this criminal case as an unusual mixture of dark provincial thriller, dry humor and psychological portrait. Together with Katrin Wichmann and Leo Meier, an investigative web of mistrust, village rituals and subliminal threats unfolds. The film takes a close look: at looking away, at fragile normality - and at the question of how one is supposed to function when everything inside oneself has long been sounding the alarm.

"Sörensen hat Angst" is a clever, suspenseful literary adaptation based on the novel by Sven Stricker - a thriller that doesn't rely on quick solutions, but on atmosphere, abysses and a hero who carries on despite everything.

Lights out and movie off - once a month, the Kultur: Haus Dacheröden shows selected literary adaptations with a short introduction. If you prefer an intimate, cozy atmosphere to a large cinema hall, this is the place for you. Experience the films by candlelight with a cool drink and a few snacks. Film adaptations of classic and contemporary literature are presented - from "Tschick" to "Naked Among Wolves", from new to old. A short introduction before the start of the screening by the Erfurt filmmaker and curator of the event series Susanne Aßmann gives an overview of the background to the film.
