Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
Marcus Unschlitt (Andreas Nutzhorn) practically worships his father and certainly does not suspect that anything serious is bothering him. Then his father hangs himself. The boy can only imagine that someone nearby bears the blame for driving his father to his death, and he imagines that a much-disliked eccentric neighbor is the culprit. Marcus does not learn the truth about his father's death until he goes to his aunt for help when he is suspected in a fire which took the old neighbor's life.
