Nachts im Park

At Night in the Park

The brilliant heart surgeon Dr. Steffen Hennings watches his attractive female colleague Dr. Katharina Lumis through the windows of her living room. Since the tragic death of his beloved wife in a car crash he survived, Steffen has not been able to bring himself to do more than admire women from afar. Hidden in the park that borders on Katharina′s back yard, Steffen is spellbound as she lights a cigarette and slowly takes off her clothes. Then he slips quietly away, unaware of a dead woman′s body lying only inches from where he just stood. The next day, police inspector Dremmler storms the hospital and arrests Steffen while he is in the middle of surgery. While Steffen is being interrogated, the police psychologist Dr. Rosenblum barges in and begins to grill the doctor with his hypothesis of how the murder took place. When the irate Katharina also barges in, Steffen takes advantage of the ensuing chaos and takes Rosenblum hostage, fleeing with him. Steffen tries to convince the psychologist of his innocence, but Rosenblum is skeptical; the last time he trusted a suspected killer, one of his colleagues paid for it with a debilitating injury. Pursued by the police as well as killers hired by the dead woman′s fiancé, the two men struggle with their own inner ghosts as they set out to find the truth.
