Overview
The Bremen chief inspector Inga Lürsen and her colleague Stedefreund are investigating in the mobile communications industry. Sandra Vegener, only recently released from a psychiatric ward, kills a judge and then herself. She had previously claimed that her daughter had died of leukemia as a result of radiation from cellphone masts and had taken vehement action against a cellphone company. The prosecutor responsible, the judge and the psychiatrist then classified her as mentally ill. Inga Lürsen and her colleague Stedefreund get deeper and deeper into a dense network of secrets and intrigues: Why is the public prosecutor lying? Why did the cell phone company pay money to the husband?
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.
