Familie Dr. Kleist — Bitteres Glück

Wonderful days in a city you've never been to before are all the lovelier when you also have a great task to do. And you always have a great task when you learn something out of the ordinary along the way — which is fully the case here.

The assumed cause is poor blood flow as a result of shock, for example due to heavy blood loss.All clear?The next instalment of further education at this spot will come with another role in beautiful Eisenach!Polyphon for ZDFDirector: Till Müller EdenbornCasting: Tina Böckenhauer
