Schramm

“Into the Mind of a Serial Killer”

Lothar Schramm (Florian Koerner von Gustorf) lies dying in his Berlin apartment, and the film follows the fragments of memory and hallucination that pass through him. By day he drives a taxi, and he answers his door to strangers and kills them, which is how the press came to call him the Lipstick Killer. Jörg Buttgereit keeps Schramm alone with these visions, and every one pushes him toward the woman he cannot approach, Marianne (Monika M.).
