Overview
Eight-year-old Tommy Beck is found dead in a wooded area. The tragic news of his son's death reached explosives expert Holger Beck at the credit bank. He and his colleagues mortgage their own homes to save their jobs. Your boss Günter Siebert, the owner of the quarry, does not have the funds for an urgently needed investment. This is the only way he can apply for a contract for the large-scale construction site of the Leipzig City Tunnel. The chief inspectors Ehrlicher and Kain initially think of a sexual offence. But then it turns out that the scene of the crime and the place where it was found are not identical. Tommy choked on construction debris produced in Siebert's quarry. However, the marks of the quarry on Tommy's clothes have been removed. And Tommy's satchel is gone too.
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.
