We are pleased to welcome you to another edition of TALK TO A SERIAL EYE. On 31 March 2026 at 17:00 CET, writer and creator Kim Zimmermann will join us to discuss her series UNFAMILIAR.
Set in the heart of Berlin, UNFAMILIAR follows former spies Simon and Meret, who secretly run the safe house “The Nest.” Hidden in plain sight, it serves as a refuge for people who need to disappear. When a threat they believed long buried resurfaces, their carefully controlled life spirals into chaos. Suddenly, they find themselves on the run from contract killers, Russian agents, the German intelligence service, former lovers, and numerous people they have wronged along the way — all while trying to keep their marriage from falling apart.
