Story

Rosmarie (53), a conformist housewife, is recruited in the late ’80s to a secret resistance organisation. In the world of psychological warfare, she unleashes a combative force within herself and uses her newly acquired weapons in the front garden, endangering not only her family but also the organisation, the true extent of which she has no idea. 

Development since promotion to level I

The project developed from an ensemble series to a clear main character with a strong story arc. Intensive research sharpened the historical arena, which is used in a targeted way. The main character not only shows an underrepresented perspective, but also embodies the central criticisms of P-26, giving the series a precise and differentiated positioning.
