Overview
The Dortmund homicide team has no time to properly greet their new boss at the police headquarters: they experience Peter Faber and his idiosyncratic investigative methods directly at the scene of the crime. The student Kai Schiplok (Tom Viehoefer) was found dead in his apartment , naked and only covered with a cloth. The first traces point to a jealousy drama. The murder victim was known for his easy-going lifestyle. His ex-boyfriend Lars Bremer (Christoph Jöde) obviously suffered from this.
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.
