Overview

In "The Black House" Klara Blum and Kai Perlmann investigate an artists' colony on Lake Constance. What appears to be a creative idyll turns into an uproar when the painter Martin Neumann is electrocuted in extremely cold blood. Klara and Perlmann are still in the process of finding out who was friend or foe in the rough painter's environment when a second murder occurs. Klara Blum is amazed to find that the perpetrator apparently used the bestsellers by crime author Ruben Rath as a template for his murders. Just wondering why? And can Klara, supported by Kai Perlmann, prevent him from continuing his cruel game?

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.
