Operation Zucker



Rainer Kaufmann : 2012
Silent Children

The promise of a better life is pivotal in ten-year-old Fee's decision to travel from her home in Romania to Germany. But she falls victim to child traffickers and is forced to work in a Berlin nightclub fronting for a child prostitution ring. She is freed, however, after a police raid. When commissioner Karin Wegemann takes up this serious case of sexual abuse, there's a shocking discovery: a respected judge is a customer of the crime ring, and the state attorney helping her is a good friend of the judge. Are the police capable of protecting the young girl? Who can be trusted in this web of lies and corruption? Rainer Kaufmann's crime drama addresses the serious flaws in society and their weakest victims: children. The film premiered at Filmfest München 2012.
