Overview

When it comes to inheritance, suppressed feelings and hidden truths come to light: In their seventh case, inspectors Franziska Tobler and Friedemann Berg get deep insights into the dynamics of a wealthy Freiburg entrepreneurial family. The suspicious fall of the 78-year-old factory owner's widow Elisabeth Klingler calls the inspectors Franziska Tobler and Friedemann Berg into action. Klingler had just announced a change in the will to her daughter, her son, her granddaughter and the notary: after her death, the family villa should go to her supervisor Elena Zelenko. A shock for their children, who react with vehement indignation. Only when their mother is already dying do Gesine and Richard find out that Elisabeth Klingler and Elena Zelenko had secretly married. Unlike their niece Toni, they don't want to accept this fact. Especially since it is now about more than just the villa. Torn between grief, the feeling of being rejected and fear of the financial consequences, the duped heirs present the inspectors with various clues as to Zelenko's involvement. Franziska Tobler and Friedemann Berg investigate, but also keep an eye on the family members. Especially since they found out during their investigations that the Klinglers and Elena Zelenko had a common past, the shadow of which weighed on Elisabeth Klingler.

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.
