What is the synospis of The Zen Murders ?
Björn Diemel is a stressed lawyer, and for good reason: he defends unscrupulous mafiosi. Bored by his anxiety, Björn’s wife sends him to a meditation class. The lawyer then learns techniques to better balance his private and professional life and enjoy his family… But not only that. Despite himself, the course will also teach him that, sometimes, to stay calm, the best way is to eliminate those who stand in our way. A philosophy that Björn quickly adopted.
