受真实犯罪案件的启发，这部虚构的六集电视剧《德国犯罪故事:格菲瑟尔特》讲述了德国最臭名昭著的连环杀手之一——所谓的“酸桶杀手”的故事。上世纪八九十年代初，赖克·多尔曼(Raik Doormann)在自己的核掩体里绑架、折磨并残忍杀害女性，这让汉堡地区充满了恐惧。直到内拉·兰根贝克……

　　Inspired by a true crime case, the fictional six-part series "German Crime Story: Gefesselt" follows the story of one of Germany's most notorious serial killers, the so-called "acid barrel killer." Raik Doormann strikes fear into the Hamburg area in the early 80s and 90s, as he kidnaps, tortures and brutally kills women in his own nuclear bunker. It is not until Nela Langenbeck, a victim counselor and later homicide detective, comes across clues to his deeds. But at that time, women within the police department are regarded more as secretaries than investigators - so she initially earned headshakes for her approaches. Against all odds, she eventually gets on the trail of Doormann and his gruesome deeds.
