Schramm
“Today
I am dirty, but tomorrow I’ll be just dirt.”
– Carl Panzram
 Lothar
Schramm (Florian Koerner von Gustorf) is dying, face down
in a pool of his own blood. Behind his closed eyes, fractured
memories repeat themselves in a neuronal fire. He runs by
the sea. He lusts after the whore (Monika M) across the hall.
He staggers through life uncertainly. He kills.
Schramm is the story of the notorious “Lipstick
Killer” Lothar Schramm’s last days on earth. Revealed
in a series of tightly constructed flashbacks, the film offers
an unflinching look into the mind of a serial killer. Uncompromising
in its depictions of violence and perversion, Schramm
is a poetic masterpiece guaranteed to make you squirm.
Available for the first time in the world on DVD, Barrel Entertainment
has spared no expense in bringing Jörg Buttgereit’s
haunting study of frustration and violence to your home. Pleasant
dreams...
