Original synopsis

Overview

Four weeks ago, the members of the Oase Ostfildern building community moved into their building and the foundation had to be dredged up again due to a sealing problem. An even bigger problem emerges: an unidentifiable female corpse. Thorsten Lannert and Sebastian Bootz try to find their way between group sessions and the residents' expressions of feelings in order to obtain clues to the identity of the dead. They encounter the idealistic dream of communal living as well as the conflicts that appear between the apartment owners when they realize that one of them may have become the perpetrator. Especially since the dead could be a former applicant who eventually disappeared without a trace. Some of the group identify their own suspect outside of the house, making life easier for themselves. The commissioners, however, are not willing to be influenced by aura and gut feeling. Rather, it makes you thinkthe missing applicant of all people had caused a stir among some of the residents... Dietrich Brüggemann and Daniel Bickermann, who have already written "Tatort: Stau" for the Stuttgart team of inspectors, also tie in with this script in everyday life: housing is a pressing issue, especially in the Stuttgart area. The home builders in "Tatort: That is our house" are not only concerned with their own roof over their heads, but above all with the dream of living together. An ideal that, after the lengthy development phase of their project, now has to prove itself in reality and is also being put to the test by dealing with the commissioners. And for Lannert and Bootz, too, the investigation in a milieu in which their very own ways of thinking are anchored is a test, even if it is above all a test of patience.

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.
