Overview
A case that actually doesn't seem to be a case at all: A young doctor has cut her wrists - on her desk is the notice of termination of the clinic in Ludwigshafen, where she had worked until then. Everything points to suicide. But Lena Odenthal is not satisfied with these outward appearances. In the clinic, she notices discrepancies and the longer she deals with the case, the betterit becomes clearer that there are major problems in the clinic: the clinic suspects that a patient was infected with the HI virus during an operation. Everything indicates that Dr. Wegener found evidence of a contaminated blood bag and was willing to go public with it. This made her a threat to the blood plasma company Global Plasma and to the clinic.
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.
