In a 19th century village, a young girl is haunted by visions of local children, who soon turn up murdered.

Laurin is a quiet and precocious adolescent girl living in rural 1901 Germany. She voyeuristically observes the behavior of the self-absorbed grownups around her, all of them seemingly oblivious to the fact that this strange little girl is growing up alone. While her father is away at sea, her mother’s violent death leaves Laurin effectively orphaned and unsupervised. Now, a murderer has begun targeting Laurin’s classmates, and Laurin has begun having terrifying hallucinations of the children. The grownups are desperate to catch the killer, but they’re woefully ignorant of the dark, secret world right under their noses. An evil has surfaced in their seemingly idyllic village, deeply rooted in childhood traumas and long-buried secrets…and no child is safe.

Writer/director Robert Sigl’s ambitious and powerful debut shocked audiences on its initial release, and never failed to spark controversy across Europe. For the film’s 35th anniversary, Visual Vengeance proudly presents Laurin in its first-ever North American release – and Sigl’s moody, atmospheric Gothic thriller has lost none of its impact in the intervening years. This director-approved special edition of the critically acclaimed film is loaded with extras, including archival materials from the director’s private vaults as well as new bonus features created exclusively for this release.
