Overview
Sophie Fettèr, founder and heart of the Ludwigshafen Theater Babbeldasch, dies of an allergic shock during a performance. LKA investigator Johanna Stern takes over the investigation and has to clarify the question of whether Sophie may have been killed on purpose, while her colleague, Chief Inspector Odenthal, is supposed to be doing overtime. But Lena was in the theater for the crucial performance and uses the connection to go incognito behind the scenes - where she witnesses grief and dismay, old enmities and new hopes circulate among the theater people. Sophie had always held everything together with charm and assertiveness. And even now she is involved, because she appears in Lena's dream and demands that she find her killer before everything falls apart. Things are bubbling up in the theater, Kopper is on vacation in Italy, Johanna is successfully collecting clues – and Lena is getting more and more into an in-between realm of investigation, stage and dream events.
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.
