(Winter Hunt)

One late night Lena pretends that her car broke down and makes her way into the mansion of the Rossberg family. She heads towards their house on purpose - the people who live there are a Nazi criminal and his daughter Maria. Rossberg and his daughter are denying their past, while Lena is obsessed with the idea of forcing them to confess their crimes. After denying everything, Rossberg skilfully gets hold of the weapon and demands that Lena says he’s innocent and compensates for his damaged reputation. The arrival of a fanatical young woman to the house uncovers many family secrets which weave the plot into an edgy psychological thriller.
