Babylon Berlin

Internationally renowned Tom Tykwer will direct the new series Babylon Berlin that will premiere in October 2018. Co-produced by ARD, Sky, X Filme and beta film and with a budget of 40 million euros, Babylon Berlin is the most ambitious German tv-series ever.

The series is an adaption of Volker Kutscher’s bestselling series about a police inspector in Berlin of the 1920s. Starring Volker Bruch and Liv Lisa Fries in the lead roles, the story evolves around the investigation of a porn ring run by the Russian mafia in Berlin – a cosmopolitan city almost torn apart by social and political tensions in the period leading up to the 2nd World War.
