Overview
Susanne Elvan (Nesche Demir) met her husband Tarek (Sahin Eryilmaz), a convicted violent criminal, through a pen pal portal while he was in prison. The wedding took place before he was released. When Susanne is found murdered, Tarek has only recently been released. The case seems clear for the chief inspectors Max Ballauf (Klaus J. Behrendt) and Freddy Schenk (Dietmar Bär). There is much to suggest that Tarek has his wife on his conscience. But when assistant Norbert Jütte (Roland Riebeling) sees that the murderer has tied a belt over his victim's eyes, the case takes an unexpected turn: Jütte remembers an earlier case and is convinced that he had already met the murderer before had to do.
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.
