Overview
In a robbery on a money transporter, the driver is shot dead. The perpetrator can escape with the loot, but his presumed accomplice has to be released due to a lack of evidence. Shortly thereafter, Ballauf and Schenk receive a mysterious mail. The inspectors make their way to Neu-Schaffrath, a village that had been resettled because of the open-cast lignite mining, where the letter had been posted. In this area there are only a few residents who defiantly oppose the resettlement. When a young man from the village, fleeing from the two inspectors, falls into the lignite mine and dies in an accident, it is obvious that some in this neighborhood know more than they want to admit.
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.
