Overview

During a robbery operation, Thorsten Lannert shoots the robber who has taken a hostage. The proportionality hearing of this act was supposed to be a routine matter, the perpetrator was dangerous and totally unpredictable. But the dead man's mother hired the lawyers Christian and Sabine Pfluger, who want to see Lannert charged with manslaughter. Sebastian Bootz relieved Thorsten Lannert in the survey - although he was actually in view of thecrucial seconds is not certain... Another witness is murdered before she can testify. Is there a connection between the robbery in the supermarket and the murder? The commissioners want to investigate, but Sebastian Bootz, who had visited the witness to substantiate his own testimony, is withdrawn from the case for attempting to exert influence. Now both commissioners are wondering if they didn't make mistakes. And that puts a strain on their cooperation.

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.
