Overview
In the middle of the night, a young couple calls the police. In a forest on the outskirts of Frankfurt, the two discovered a woman's body. But when the chief inspectors Anna Janneke (Margarita Broich) and Paul Brix (Wolfram Koch) arrive there, the body is gone. A car registered to Maria Gombrecht (Victoria Trauttmansdorff) was observed near the suspected crime scene. Although the car has also disappeared, massive traces of blood indicate that Maria was the victim of a crime. Confronted with this fact, husband Ulrich Gombrecht (Uwe Preuss) and two daughters Kristina (Odine Johne) and Judith (Julia Riedler) continue to cling to the fact that Maria is in France for fasting and will reappear. Gombrecht is seriously ill, Kristina is heavily pregnant, and Judith is going through difficult rehearsals as a theater director. For the investigators, it initially looks like a robbery, but then the traces lead right into the middle of the family. Janneke and Brix soon discover that everyone here has secrets from each other. And in the end, the truth is far more gruesome than expected.
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.
