Bezimena

Bezimena

Elisabeth Herrmann

For lawyer Joachim Vernau, everything in life started on the path of success.

He will marry the up-and-coming politician Sigrun von Zernikow and thereby not only find his way into Berlin's high society, but will also become a partner in the prestigious law firm of Sigrun's father Utz. However, when an old Ukrainian woman suddenly appears and asks Utz to sign a mysterious document in Cyrillic, the respectable family's facade of integrity begins to crumble. Because Utz should use this signature to confirm that his family employed a forced laborer from Ukraine as a nanny during the Second World War, so that she could now receive compensation. Utz denies all this and throws the woman out into the street. The whole incident would be quickly forgotten, but the Ukrainian woman was pulled out of the Landwehr Canal not long after. Although Vernau has a premonition that he is jeopardizing his own future in the new family, he begins to ask uncomfortable questions. And it soon becomes clear that the von Zerniks are not hiding just one dark spot on their seemingly clean family history.
