Overview
A murder in the milieu of clubs and bouncers confronts the Ludwigshafen inspectors Lena Odenthal and Johanna Stern with dubious connections between private security services and state clients. Club operator Timur Kerala considered himself the rising star in the Ludwigshafen security business. But even before he can beat top dog Gerhard Arentzen from the field, Kerala is murdered. Lena Odenthal and Johanna Stern suspect competition in the milieu. Arentzen is not impressed by the events - because government agencies are outsourcing more and more security tasks to private service providers, he has excellent connections in politics and is unassailable. Which in turn LenaOdenthal is not impressed: When Kerala's ex-wife and her daughter are threatened, Lena Odenthal is determined, against all advice, to convict Arentzen. And that puts you in the line of fire. The 72nd Lena Odenthal "crime scene" comes from author and director Tom Bohn. In it, he takes a look at private security companies, which in our society are increasingly taking on security tasks for government agencies, but are also criticized because some of them are associated with illegal activities and organized crime. Thure Riefenstein plays the boss of such a company, whose alleged seriousness Lena Odenthal wants to break.
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.
