Where's Wanda? a German dark comedy due on Apple TV+ from October 2, 2024, marks a first for the platform in terms of German-language content. The series is created by Oliver Lansley and Zoltan Spirandelli, and stars Heike Makatsch, Axel Stein and Lea Drinda. In a plot where humor meets drama, Dedo and Carlotta Klatt embark on a personal investigation to find their daughter Wanda, who has disappeared without a trace, bringing to light the unmentionable secrets of their quiet suburb.
When their daughter Wanda disappears without explanation, Dedo and Carlotta Klatt, a seemingly ordinary couple, find their world falling apart. After months of fruitless police searches, they decide to take matters into their own hands. With the help of their son Ole, a computer expert, they obtain surveillance equipment to spy on their neighborhood under the guise of employees of an electricity supplier. What begins as a simple investigation soon turns into a dive into the mysteries of their suburb, where every neighbor seems to be hiding a dark secret. Where's Wanda? skilfully plays with the codes of thriller and black comedy, promising unexpected twists and turns.
Where's Wanda? will appeal above all to fans of dark comedies and thrillers, where wry humor and absurd situations mingle with palpable tension. This series could particularly appeal to those who have enjoyed works such as Fargo or The House of Happiness, where the banality of everyday life is challenged by tragic events or shocking revelations. What sets Where's Wanda? apart is its ability to treat a subject as serious as the disappearance of a teenage girl with mordant lightness, while exploring the foibles and hypocrisies of modern society.
With the new Where's Wanda? series, Apple TV+ enriches its catalog with a first German-language series that's sure to surprise. Blending dark humor and detective intrigue, the series promises to captivate a wide audience while offering a sharp reflection on the deceptive appearances and buried secrets of suburban life. Available from October 2, 2024, this is a must-see series for fans of darkly comic tales.
