Original synopsis

Overview

Daniel Kossik can't believe it: His brother Tobias, of all people, belongs to the hard core of the right-wing extremist group Nationale Soziale. Does Daniel now have to investigate him too? The Dortmund commissioners are looking for the killer of Kai Fischer, who is considered the head of the local neo-Nazi scene. His heavily pregnant wife Tanja is certain that Jedida Steinmann, the director of a counseling center against right-wing violence, is behind the crime. She would have had a motive: her husband had also been the victim of an assassination attempt. The victim Kai Fischer was an urgent suspect at the time. But the evidence was not sufficient for a transfer. The investigations prove to be particularly dangerous for Nora Dalay: She doesn't mince her words when it comes to Fischer's followers and is soon attacked by a group of right-wing extremists.

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.
