Murder Mindfully (Seasons 1–2)

Murder Mindfully (Achtsam morden, 2024) is a German dark-comedy crime series you can watch online on iFILM. Tom Schilling plays Björn, a mob lawyer grinding through a career that's slowly killing him — until his wife suggests a mindfulness course.

The instructor talks about presence. Acceptance. Letting go. Björn finds the lessons useful, just not in the way the brochure intended. His clients are dangerous people, his caseload is unsustainable, and somewhere between the breathing exercises and the body scans, a very calm idea takes root. Emily Cox and Britta Hammelstein keep the pressure on him from opposite directions.

The series adapts Karsten Dusse's German bestseller of the same name — a novel that sold hundreds of thousands of copies on the back of one very dark joke about work-life balance. The comedy is dry, the crime is real, and the mindfulness is, in its own way, sincere. Stream Murder Mindfully online on iFILM.
