Nina Hoss, Ronald Zehrfeld, Nina Kunzendorf.Set in a rubble-strewn Berlin in 1945, is like no other film about post-World War II Jewish identity. After surviving Auschwitz, a former cabaret perfromer, her face disfigured and reconstructed, returns to her war-ravaged hometown to seek out the gentile husband who may or may not have betrayed her to the Nazis. Without recognizing her, he enlists her to play his wife in a bizarre hall-of-shattered-mirrors story that's as richly metaphorical as it is preposterously engrossing.PG.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; 5.1 surround.

The inspector and the sea. [videorecording] / by Gatjen, Andy.; Hallgren, Frida.; Jungstadt, Mari.; Nilsson, Inger.; Sittler, Walter.; MHZ Networks Home Entertainment (Firm);
The Unseen -- Closer Than You Think -- In a Lonely Place -- Summertime -- The Dying Dandy -- Dark Angel.Walter Sittler, Andy Gatjen, Inger Nilsson, Frida Hallgren, Sólveig Arnarsdottir.This blockbuster German crime series, The Inspector and the Sea, is based on the best-selling crime novels by Mari Jungstedt and is set on the idyllic Swedish island of Gotland. Laid-back German police inspector Robert Anders has the job of solving crimes on Gotland, but he's a man out of his element: living on an island, and afraid of the sea. It's a phobia he'll have to conquer if he's to delve beneath the pleasant surface of the medieval town of Visby. Behind the facade of its brightly colored houses lurk criminals of all stripes: con men, extortionists, kidnappers and serial killers. They move among the residents and the summertime tourists who vacation in cottages that line the beaches. Robert's investigative team includes his loyal deputy Karin Jacobsson, the charming, capable Thomas Wittberg, and Ewa, a sardonic pathologist. Together, they discover that seemingly innocuous local characters conceal secrets; everyone has something they're hiding and nothing is as it appears on the surface. The resort town of Visby may present the picture of innocence, but it provides plenty of work for a criminal inspector.14A.DVD; NTSC, region 1, widescreen presentation.
