Series

The elaborate WDR radio play production "Kyllroth", which takes a true series of murders in (post-)World War II Hungary as its model and relocates the events to the Eifel region in 1917, proves how well serialized storytelling works exclusively on an audio level. Here, several war returnees mysteriously die, which the locals blame on the legendary Maar witch. However, it soon becomes clear that the women who had become independent during the war may simply have taken a liking to their new self-determination and the odd foreign prisoner of war. And could possibly have taken matters into their own hands here too. The atmospheric series, accompanied by the WDR Funkhausorchester and narrated by stars such as Ulrich Matthes, provides exciting answers.
