Overview
The attractive waitress Ellen Krüger was murdered in her apartment. It turns out that the young woman was a drug addict. Surprisingly, Matthias Krupp, a colleague, is at the center of the investigations of chief inspectors Eva Saalfeld and Andreas Keppler. He is looking for his 17-year-old daughter, Amelie, who ran away from home. Did Krupp find out that Ellen Krueger was selling his daughter drugs and therefore killed her? Amelie reappears, but at the same time Matthias Krupp is found dead. A trail leads to another colleague of the commissioners. Stefan Dirks is a drug investigator - does he deal in drugs? Had Matthias Krupp become a danger to Dirks by looking for Amelie and therefore had to die? But Dirks has an alibi for the time of the crime. It is a special case for Eva Saalfeld and Andreas Keppler, because they had been friends with Matthias Krupp and Berit, his wife, for a long time. The public prosecutor Lucke accuses the commissioners of bias and urges a quick conclusion of the investigation...
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.
