Overview
A dead body is caught in the net of a German fishing boat off the Norwegian coast. The dead man is probably the second officer of the Bremerhaven container ship MS Karina. To the astonishment of chief inspector Inga Lürsen (Sabine Postel) and her colleague Stedefreund (Oliver Mommsen), the dead man is not missing and neither the water police nor the responsible shipping company are willing to help. While Stedefreund is investigating in Bremerhaven, Inga goes on board the MS Karina to persuade the captain to turn back. But he can't be said at all, especially not by a woman. The rest of the male crew also eyed her with suspicion.
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.
