Original synopsis

Overview

A committee of judges is called to Bremen to rule on a controversial deepening of the Weser. A sex video of one of Germany's top judges, Konrad Bauser (Christoph M. Ohrt), appears. The underage Mel (Jella Haase) and her boyfriend Ole (Sven Gielnik) blackmail him with it. Shortly thereafter, Ole is dead. Inga Lürsen (Sabine Postel) and Stedefreund (Oliver Mommsen) take up the investigation and it doesn't take long for Stedefreund to find Mel. The girl tells Lürsen and Stedefreund about Konrad Bauser, who, however, has an alibi. At the same time, Lürsen and Stedefreund are following another lead: could it be that Bauser was threatened not only by Mel and Ole but also from a completely different side?

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.
