ZED in the auditorium: Hamnet

Early 17th century, a mysterious soldier arrives in a remote Protestant village somewhere in Germany. The modest stranger, marked by a striking scar, claims to be the heir of a long-abandoned farmhouse and presents documents to back up his claim. Although the villagers initially view him with suspicion, he gradually wins their trust. As a hardworking and God-fearing man, he manages to secure a place for himself within the close-knit community. But his carefully constructed identity is based on a lie.
