Overview
The only witness is only eight: When the Habdank family's house is broken into in the middle of the night, little Anna is able to hide. Shortly thereafter, her younger brother and her mother are dead. Inspector Max Ballauf finds the girl hours later in the basement of the house. Anna is in shock. She doesn't want to talk about what she experienced or saw. Freddy Schenk asks his colleague to proceed cautiously with the investigation. The girl first finds accommodation with her aunt Hilde and her husband Gunnar. Even Anna's father Sven Habdank, who has just returned from a business trip, is hardly available to the inspectors. Does the assassination attempt on the family have anything to do with his job? Habdank is a tax auditor and is considered by his colleagues to be a "tough dog who bites his teeth": Both the journalist Ole Winthir and the building contractor Pit Benteler, who had to disclose their accounts, are not on good terms with him. Or is it more like murder out of jealousy? There was obviously tension in the relationship between Sven Habdank and his partner Freya. Was there something going on between Sven's brother Michael and Freya?
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.
