Original synopsis

Overview

The discovery of a dead person in a desolate residential area was reported anonymously in the early hours of the morning. Jana Gruber was overpowered in her house and brutally killed. Evidence indicates that the woman worked as a prostitute - and that she had a child. But the children's room is deserted, there is no trace of the child, a ten-year-old son. The anonymous caller is identified and, amazingly, there is a file about him: Gustav Langer used to get in touch with the law more oftenConflict. And as a suitor, he had known the victim for a long time. But is he also the murderer of Jana? Very soon they recognize similarities between the current case and an unsolved murder some time ago. Investigators are deeply alarmed by the possibility of a serial killer acting according to plan. The detectives are pushed to the limit, they investigate to the point of exhaustion against time and a psychopathic insane killer.

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.
