After the success of Dark (2017–2020) in 1899 (2022), Netflix will further expand the German offer next week with the purchased crime series Lauchhammer – Death in Lusatia (2022– ). In a few days, the detective series can already be seen on the streaming service.
Gruesome murder
For an LKA detective, the murder of a young woman is a home game: he grew up in the victim’s hometown in the lignite mining area of Brandenburg, the son of a local police officer. But now the area has gone steeply downhill. Together with a dedicated colleague, he investigates, with clues leading to climate activists, a gang of crooks and the unsolved past.
Well-known German cast
The leading roles are played by Dogs of Berlin actor Mišel Matičević, Tatort actress Odine Johne, Marc Hosemann, Dark actress Ella Lee and Jacob Matschenz.
On Netflix next week
Lauchhammer – Tod in der Lausitz consists of six episodes and is from next Wednesday March 22nd to be seen on Netflix. For a complete overview of all new films and series that will soon appear on the streaming service, please visit our Coming soon to Netflix page.
