Original synopsis

Overview

A young woman has disappeared without a trace and her friend, a patrolman, is quite sure that she was murdered. But there is no evidence of a crime. Does the policeman himself have something to do with his girlfriend's disappearance? Borowski has no idea that the cop's neighbor, a veterinarian, has committed the seemingly perfect crime. Behind the facade of the compassionate, kind veterinarian lies a deep souldisturbed personality who does not shy away from murder. And it works in an extremely clever way. With the help of the young police candidate Sarah Brandt, Borowski gradually succeeds in seeing through the web of lies and deception. But when a second body turns up, the case takes a surprising turn and Borowski finds himself in a dangerous duel in which Sarah Brandt plays a key role.

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.
