About Sturm kommt auf
After World War I, political divisions deepen in a village in Upper Bavaria. Julius Kraus, a reclusive cobbler, finds himself caught between the fronts when his Jewish identity is revealed. The two 90-minute feature films are based on the novel "Unruhe um einen Friedfertigen" (Unrest Around a Peaceful Man) by Oskar Maria Graf, a masterpiece of German-language exile literature.
Directed by Matti Geschonneck, Sturm kommt auf leans on a strong ensemble — Josef Hader, Sigi Zimmerschied, Frederic Linkemann — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
