BERLIN and LOS ANGELES – Principal photography of the premium eight-part mystery thriller series ODERBRUCH (WT) has started in Germany and Poland. Karoline Schuch (“Dark Woods”), Felix Kramer (“Dogs of Berlin”) and Lucas Gregorowicz (“Police Call 110,” “Pagan Peak”) are currently shooting in Görlitz, Germany. The drama with a supernatural twist is produced by Syrreal Entertainment, ARD Degeto and CBS Studios, a Paramount Global company. Filming is scheduled to continue through the summer.
Joining the cast are André Hennicke (“Pandorum”), Alix Heyblom (“Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo”), Winfried Glatzeder (“Die Legende von Paul und Paula”), Robert Glatzeder (“In aller Freundschaft”) and Jan Krauter (“3 ½ hours”).
In the series, the sinister discovery of numerous murder victims shocks the Oderbruch region. The former inland delta on the Polish border is the most sparsely populated region in Germany. The serial murder case brings Detective Roland Voit (Felix Kramer) to his hometown to work with Polish police officer Stanislaw Zajak (Lucas Gregorowicz). Voit’s former colleague and childhood sweetheart, Maggie Kring (Karoline Schuch), is also called in to join the police investigation when her family comes under immediate suspicion. Reluctantly, the ex-policewoman returns to the scene of events after leaving her hometown 20 years ago. In their investigation, Maggie and Voit delve deep into their own past to finally uncover the true circumstances about the death of Maggie’s brother and the sinister truth of this case, which lies beyond human imagination.
The series is shot in Germany and Poland and directed by Adolfo J. Kolmerer and Christian Alvart. Series creator and head writer Arend Remmers developed the series concept with Kolmerer. ODERBRUCH is produced by Syrreal Entertainment, ARD Degeto and CBS Studios. Siegfried Kamml, Christian Alvart and Timm Oberwelland from Syrreal Entertainment serve as producers. The executives overseeing the project are Christoph Pellander, editor-in-chief of ARD Degeto; Sebastian Lückel, head of acquisitions and co-productions at ARD Degeto; Patrick Noel Simon, commissioning editor at ARD Degeto; and Meghan Lyvers, senior vice president of international co-productions and development at CBS Studios.
