The TV event series “I Am Scrooge” (RTL+ / Zeitsprung Pictures), for which Michael composed and produced the score, will open the Series Camp Festival 2024 in Cologne on June 5. It is about the longest and most exciting blackmail case in German history.

“Friedrich Mücke shines here as Arno Funke, who kept the German justice system and public on tenterhooks for years as the ‘department store blackmailer Scrooge’ and decades later has now also advised the team around author Ronny Schalk and director Hannu Salonen. The result is a gripping fictional series about what is probably the most colorful duck in Germany’s criminal pond.” (Seriencamp)
