Overview
A dead Indian is fished out of the Ilm. It is about Wolfgang Weber, who owned the western town of El Doroda. The Weimar inspectors Kira Dorn and Lessing learn from his managing director Heinz Knapps that Weber wanted to give notice to the tenants of the western town. In desperation, did the hobbyists throw a lynch party? While Kira goes undercover in El Doroda and proves that a real cowgirl lies dormant in her,Lessing encounters the ice-cold civil engineering contractor Ellen Kircher. She lets her depraved son Nick spread fear and terror in the Western town since she screwed up a geothermal well there that Weber didn't want to pay for. But the violent death of a young bison and an attack on Heinz Knapps indicate that there is a deeper secret behind the murder of the Indian.
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.
