Eine wie diese

Bremen 1974: Siggi Thieme, 22, is in a hurry to leave the typing pool where she works as a secretary: she has to go for a job interview. Her dream is to become a detective inspector. The law has finally lifted the barrier that prevented her from entering this profession. She hasn't told her family or her fiancé Jürgen about her application because she rightly fears a headwind.

Directed by Franziska Buch, Eine wie diese leans on a strong ensemble — Cornelia Gröschel, Marlon Kittel, Peter Heinrich Brix — 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 tv movie titles of 2014.
