Operation Zucker

January 15, 2013

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 as a prostitute in a Berlin sex club. She is freed, however, after a police raid. When commissioner 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 quagmire of lies and corruption? This crime drama addresses serious flaws in our society and their weakest victims: children.

Karin Wegemann has been transferred. Instead of being on active duty at the LKA, she has been teaching prospective colleagues at the police academy for several months. But a life at a standstill is not made for a woman who feels most comfortable in a headwind. The career change brings her neither external stability nor inner peace. Her superiors see this too. One evening, Wegemann meets investigative journalist Maik Fellner. Child trafficking in Germany has been Fellner's topic for years, but his articles ultimately have no effect whatsoever, and his harrowing research is at best denigrated as slander. Fellner needs Wegemann, but he needs her as an active police officer. He puts Wegemann under pressure and tells her about a 14-year-old witness who has put him on the trail of a child trafficking ring in Potsdam. Her investigation puts her in dire straits, because the perpetrators also know that there is a witness.
