Best if one understands German
23 January 2024
The movie might be more interesting if the subtitles were more accurate and covered more of the movie. One keeps thinking they left things out with the subtitles. Minthe, born in Hellheim, seems adrift, not knowing who she is, having been passed from foster family to foster family. She has skills, but seems to not follow through with them. Living elsewhere she is given a job in Hellheim, to restore an old mill. The mill is owned by a bank, and wants the mill (Wolf Mill) completely restored. She can live there, but she is not to go into one of the outbuildings nor the cold room, which is a vast labyrinth. An old woman lives in the outbuilding. She is told back in 1630, there were stories of werewolves and other strange thing happenings. And ominously, she is given a warning by a local to leave before the full moon. And there are things happening that suggest things are not what they seem. There is a murder, and an outsider cop assigned there seems to be greatly disliked by the local police as he asks questions about the crime. There are questions about the motives of the bank. And it seems her getting the job is no accident.
