Overview
In Dortmund, detectives Peter Faber (Jörg Hartmann), Martina Bönisch (Anna Schudt), Nora Dalay (Aylin Tezel) and Daniel Kossik (Stefan Konarske) investigate. They have to solve the death of a young parachutist. His screen had obviously been tampered with. He won't survive. Leo Janek is in the intensive care unit, on artificial respiration. Previously, someone had dumped the young, seriously injured family man in front of the clinic. Inspectors Peter Faber and Martina Bönisch search for clues in Janek's personal environment. There have often been tensions here recently: in his job at a bank, with his wife Klara (Inez Bjørg David) and son Martin Janek, as well as with brother-in-law Frank (Constantin von Jascheroff), for whom he had given a loan. The adventurous Leo Janek saw all of this as a one-way street. He got his kick from skydiving. Commissioners Nora Dalay and Daniel Kossik are investigating undercover in his ski jumping club. There they find out that Leo Janek was part of a base jumper scene where skydiving off tall buildings is the ultimate challenge. Did he die in such a daring jump? Nora Dalay is also taking full risk: She has aroused the interest of the attractive parachute instructor Jules Lanke (Albrecht Schuch) –
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.
