Original synopsis

Overview

The butcher couple Hans and Lisa Pietsch have been married for many years. They are popular and run a small butcher's shop in a part of Bremen. The sun and its moon – this is how the neighbors describe the couple. But since the accidental death of their daughter ten years ago, the happiness of the former dream couple has been crumbling. When the body of Sandra Wiemann – a young neighbor of the Pietschs – is found, everyone initially believes it was suicide. Helen, Inga Lürsen's daughter, is moving into exactly this apartment building and so Inga uses the opportunity to investigate "undercover" - to the displeasure of her colleague Stedefreund, who is in charge of these investigations himself. For Hans and Lisa, the dead woman was "like a daughter", the dead woman also helped the single mother next door, only the caretaker had turned her down. All the neighbors get more and more entangled in their statements and suddenly Lisa and Hans not only have to face the questions from the police, but also the mistakes of their past.

About the show

Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
