German term

Darüber

German to English Art/Literary General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
This is a text describing a conversation / what 2 characters, Beat and Janik, have been doing in a flat:

Beat blickt aufgebracht zu Janik, kommt zur Ruhe, blickt dann zu dem nun schwarzen Monitor, der seine nachdenkliche Miene spiegelt. Darüber:

LUNA (off, mit niederländischen Akzent) Wie weit sind Sie mit diesem Club-Promoter? Wie war noch sein Künstlername?

Some sort of explanation would be helpful just as much as a translation.

voice-over

You describe this as a letter? Sounds more like some kind of script. In any case, "darüber" suggests that the following text is a voice-over.

This is supported by "LUNA (off, mit ...)".
Peer comment(s):

agree BrigitteHilgner : Probably, yes. But meaningful context is missing.
