Overview
While the police choir sings "Silent Night, Holy Night" in the headquarters canteen, a dead baby is laid unobserved in front of the altar in the small church at the Old South Cemetery - with a request for burial. Batic (Miroslav Nemec) and Leitmayr (Udo Wachtveitl) are stunned in front of the child's corpse. dr Steinbrecher (Robert Joseph Bartl) discovers death by asphyxiation shortly after birth. On the same day, a young Romanian (Mathilde Bundschuh), who had just given birth and collapsed on the street, was admitted to a Munich clinic. But she disappeared, allegedly picked up by her husband (Florin Piersik jr.). At about the same time, another young Romanian (Cosmina Stratan) appeared in a doctor's office with a newborn child, desperately asking for help and fleeing when the doctor called the police. How are the two women related? What happened? During their investigations, Batic and Leitmayr track down an organized beggar clan who have set up camp on the outskirts of Munich and are hoping for big business at Christmas.
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.
