When Lothar Schramm dies in a puddle of his own blood his life flashes before his eyes. Lothar Schramm is a serial killer who has a secret crush on his neighbor who works in prostitution. In his daily life Lothar appears to be a mild mannered taxi driver, but underneath this calm and friendly side, a dangerous serial killer lurks.
Schramm is a typical film by Jörg Buttgereit. Even though this movie does not use a taboo like necrophilia or suicide like other Buttgereit movies, this movie grants you a view in the deranged world of a serial killer. Schramm would not have been a Buttgereit movie if this wouldn’t have been done in a manner most controversial.
