GLADBECK: THE HOSTAGE CRISIS
Directed by Volker Heise
Online on Netflix from June 8th 2022
Gladbeck, Germany, August 1988: Two gangsters rob a bank, take two hostages and embark on an odyssey across West Germany. They hijack a bus carrying almost thirty passengers. The police lose control of the situation while reporters get whiff of a sensation and inject themselves into a crime that blossoms into a media event. For three days, the eyes and ears of the entire country are glued to live television, live radio and newspapers – and before it’s all over, two innocent people are dead.
GLADBECK: THE HOSTAGE CRISIS tells an abysmal story exclusively using archive materials, including news, live reports, telephone recordings and amateur recordings made over the three days of the hostage rampage. The film is an unsparing look at the moment when news became merchandise and crime became spectacle – it was the beginning of an era that persists until today.
