Hamburg: A district has to be cleared for a bomb disposal. For the female explosives expert, the first deployment turns out to be particularly critical. In addition, not all residents are able or willing to comply with the evacuation order. BLINDGÄNGER focuses on individual characters during this short, intense span of time, in the style of an episodic film. The small insights into their lives leave a lot open to suggestion; the individual stories are interwoven, and in this crisis situation, encounters occur that would not normally have happened. The story is told not only in a suspenseful way, but above all in a way that is humane and touching. The stellar cast includes Anne Ratte-Polle, Claudia Michelsen and Bernhard Schütz, among others.
