Overview
And there is still spark between the two: at a class reunion in his hometown of Essen, Max Ballauf meets the sweetheart of his youth. But Katja is married and has two children with her classmate at the time, Stefan Dorn. The party ends in a fight. The next morning, Stefan Dorn is found murdered in his hotel room. Ballauf is also suspected of having killed his former school friend. The Essen chief inspector Vossbeck takes him into interrogation. But the murder of Stefan Dorn soon spreads. As managing director of the "RUHR.2010 Foundation", he was also responsible, among other things, for awarding larger construction contracts. Is his death related to the murder of the Cologne contractor Franz Tarrach, in which Commissioner Schenk and Commissioner's assistant Franziska Lüttgenjohann are currently investigating?

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.
