Original synopsis

Overview

When the young Lutz Bergmann crashes into a bridge pillar and dies, Lena Odenthal rightly suspects a murder. The power man worked for the company Rocket Marketing, which advertises energy drink sellers in a Ponzi scheme and is managed by the charismatic Max Hüllen. A rip-off job that brought Bergmann not only a lot of money but also many enemies. Anyone who has been seduced by the promise of fast, uncomplicated money is risking their belongingsand circle of friends. Above all, the sanitaryware retailer Wattenscheid makes itself suspicious, which, instead of bridging a short-term business slump, was driven into bankruptcy. Lutz Bergmann's old friend Ritchy Horst is also suspicious. Ritchy is also a Rocket Marketing seller and is extremely successful. Lena, suspicious of this overly glossy surface, sneaks Mario Kopper undercover into Rocket Marketing.

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.
