About Und Jimmy ging zum Regenbogen
Rodolpho Aranda, head of an Argentinian chemical company, is found murdered in a Berlin bookshop: An elderly librarian named Valerie Steinfeld poisoned him with cyanide and then took her own life. As the LKA was unable to establish any connection between the victim and the perpetrator, the motive for the crime remains unclear. When Aranda's son Manuel arrives to transfer his father's body to Argentina, the case is officially closed. Instead of an explanation, the young doctor only receives a sealed zinc coffin - the search for the truth is left to him.
Directed by Carlo Rola, Und Jimmy ging zum Regenbogen leans on a strong ensemble — Heino Ferch, Dennenesch Zoudé, Judy Winter — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2008.
