Overview

A Bulgarian ex-prostitute is the victim of a horrific murder attempt. When Bibi Fellner (Adele Neuhauser) arrives with Moritz Eisner (Harald Krassnitzer) at the crime scene in front of a Viennese bowling center, she suddenly realizes that her past has caught up with her: she knows the victim from her time at Sitt. The call for help on her cell phone does not reach Bibi Fellner because the number is anonymous and she therefore cuts the call. Immediately afterwards, the caller, a Bulgarian ex-prostitute, is the victim of a horrific murder attempt. As she smokes a cigarette in front of a Viennese bowling center, a boy sprays her from his BMX bike with a petrol-filled toy pump gun - the woman immediately bursts into flames. Bibi Fellner suddenly realizes that her past has caught up with her when she arrives at the scene of the crime with her partner Moritz Eisner: The most seriously injured victim is Yulya Bakalova, whom she knows from her time at Sitt. An eyewitness discovers the perpetrator among the spectators. But this small, inconspicuous boy immediately holds out a note from his wallet to Chief Inspector Moritz Eisner: "I'm Ivo. I am twelve years old. In the spirit & 74 StGB is a minor. Must not punish." Because he stubbornly remains silent and no one knows who his relatives are, the boy is first placed in a home for socially disadvantaged children. But he flees from there the first night. When Bibi Fellner receives the news that Yulya has succumbed to her severe burns, she is out of her mind. Because she had firmly promised to protect Yulya from her pursuers, according to her testimony in court. But who and what made the child carry out this coldly calculated, perfidious petrol attack?

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.
