An aspiring young author is found dead in the new Frankfurt crime scene. The film was shot in Frankfurt – which is gloomy and foggy in this film.
This Frankfurt crime scene is heavy fare. “Luna eats or dies” is about abandoned young people, overburdened single parents and the social division. The backdrop to the story is correspondingly gloomy: the setting is foggy and cloudy Frankfurt.

The bridges)
After the release party for her debut novel, 19-year-old author Luise Nathan is found dead. At first everything looks like a suicide, but Commissioners Janneke and Brix soon have doubts.
Several Main bridges play a role in the investigation: the Osthafenbrücke, the Honsellbrücke and the Deutschherrnbrücke. Luise is found in the latter.
The Publisher
What role does Luise’s publisher play? After all, it was his party that Luise disappeared from. Wasn’t the young author up to the pressure of expectation to submit a second novel right away?
The location was the former Telekom area next to the Ostbahnhof, the “Danzig am Platz”, which has offices, but which is also the venue.
The cafe
Luise was very committed to society – among other things in the Café Kelle, a meeting place for children and young people from socially disadvantaged families. The film was shot in a former tapas bar in the Bornheim district.
The underpass
At some point the inspectors wonder where Luise’s fiction actually ended and reality began. Who was the role model for her main character in the novel, Luna? Because: Luise did not – like Luna – come from precarious circumstances.
How much Luna’s mother was overwhelmed with her children in the novel is illustrated by a scene in a pedestrian underpass that takes place in the imagination of the inspectors: Luna’s sister falls and is hit, the mother is drunk and does not help. The film was shot in an underpass at the Riederhöfe tram stop.
The nursery
What role does Dennis, Luise’s friend Nellie’s boyfriend, play? Inspector Brix visits him at his place of work, a nursery. The film was shot in the palm garden, which the Frankfurters lovingly give to her “green living room” to name.
The settlement
Brix also wants to investigate Dennis’ apartment – the film was shot in a settlement in the northeast of Frankfurt. The settlement is an example of the division between the city and the country.
The bridge
Was one of Dennis’ friends pregnant and lost the child? Assistant Jonas searches the banks of the Main for traces. The location was the Osthafenbrücke, which was inaugurated in 2013 together with the Honsellbrücke.
