Original synopsis

Overview

The doctor at the "Abendrot" senior citizens' home, Dr. Rose Lang, was murdered. Ironically, in "Abendrot" Freddy Schenk also accommodated his grandmother Margot – against her will. Now he has a guilty conscience. In the home, there was obviously also tension between Dr. Lang and the nurse Tatjana Riegelsberger and the director of the home Erika Schubert. After the recent death of a senior citizen, the doctor had expressed clear criticism of the nursing shortage in the "afterglow". The home resident Mr. Kehl is convinced that his wife could have been saved if only help had been there in time. Another resident of the home, Konstantin Baumeister, died completely unexpectedly. Margot Schenk had just become friends with him of all people.

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.
