Ferdinand von Schirach – Glauben

Drama / Legal

Focuses on a judicial scandal from the 1990s in which numerous women and men in Worms are accused of child abuse: In the provincial town of Ottern, a pediatrician examines a girl and finds evidence of rape. It does not seem to be an isolated case - rather, children were apparently systematically abused and abused in a pornography ring. Prosecutor Cordelis (Sebastian Urzendowsky) is bringing charges against 26 people. One of the defendants is represented in court by defense attorney Richard Schlesinger (Peter Kurth), who suffers from gambling addiction. The prosecution is based in particular on over 300 interviews that social worker Ina Reuth (Katharina M. Schubert) conducted with the children.
