Martha Is Dead Trailer Details
While the trailer reveals very little about what players will actually be doing, it does offer a first look at the actual setting of the game. Set in 1944 Italy, Martha is Dead features stunning visuals that bring to life its surreal environments. We also get to see brief shots of Udo Kier’s character throughout. Founder and director of LKA, Luca Dalco, spoke about the importance of the game’s setting, as well as having Kier onboard.
The setting has always been an incredibly important part of Martha Is Dead. offers . Italy in 1944 was a country paralysed by panic and paranoia. With the Germans occupying the north as the Allies liberated the south, loyalties were strained as the nation quite literally split in two.
Udo Kier was a perfect fit for the role of German General and father of the twins. It is a real coup for the team to land him.
