Overview

It was supposed to look like a heart attack, but the pharmacist Andreas Hölzenbein was murdered. In the botanical garden, he got into a fight with a stranger who gave him a life-threatening injection with a syringe. The bright, young witness Mia (Lena Meyer) claims to have observed all of this. But Commissioner Thiel is initially skeptical: doesn't the ten-year-old student simply have too much imagination? Very specificMeanwhile, Prof. Boerne is worried about his own state of health. In self-diagnosis, he had to realize that a tissue sample from his liver was probably unavoidable. That's why he immediately checked himself into the sanus clinic. So it's a good thing that he can conduct investigations into the Andreas Hölzenbein case from his sick bed. Even if the clinic staff doesn't like it at all...

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.
