23 is a 1998 German drama thriller film about a young hacker Karl Koch, who died on 23 May 1989, a presumed suicide. It was directed by Hans-Christian Schmid, who also participated in screenwriting.

We Are the Night is a 2010 German vampire horror film directed by Dennis Gansel, starring Karoline Herfurth and Nina Hoss. The film explores themes of depression, self-harm, the consequences of immortality, suicide, and "explores" Valerie Solanas' idea of an all-female society. Two other endings were shot for this film, like with Gansel's previous film The Wave. Both were discarded to bring a more ambiguous ending to the film. We are the night flopped in German cinemas. Dennis Gansel stated in German press that the commercial failure hurt his soul because of all the work he and his co-workers put into the film. Dennis Gansel attributed the failure to the film opening the same week as The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and not able to compete with such an established franchise. The film fared better on DVD. source: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1692504/ In Berlin, a cop closes in on an all-female vampire trio who just took in a new member, Lena. source: http://www...
