Grandjean - 3 - Schattenkinder

Resumen

The bizarrely displayed corpse of a young man leads the Zurich police to the charismatic artist Kyomi (Sarah Hostettler). This is ensnared by a group of young supporters, including the dead man. He obviously followed Kyoni unconditionally like a kind of savior and willingly allowed himself to be stylized into an art object in her hands. The fascinating charisma of the artist also seems to have an effect on the inspector Tessa Ott and makes her colleague Isabelle Grandjean all the more skeptical. What game is the artist playing with her art and her followers, who, like children from a dark past, believe they are being led to the light by her? In an abandoned factory, cosmetic surgeon Beat Gessner (Imanuel Humm) comes across the corpse of his son Max (Vincent Furrer), which seems to be wrapped in a cocoon. Tessa Ott (Carol Schuler) and Isabelle Grandjean (Anna Pieri Zuercher) discover that the corpse not only has tattoos on the face, but also on the cornea of the eyes. The shocked father reports that he has not had any contact with his son for a long time . Initial investigations lead the inspectors to a sectarian artists' commune. This is led by the charismatic Kyomi (Sarah Hostettler). Her "disciples" are exactly like the deceased Max: shaved head, tattoos on the face and cornea - an incredibly painful process. A second track leads via Kyomi to the gallery owner Bruno Escher (Fabian Krüger). He markets Kyomi's art and could capitalize on Max's death. Would Escher go that far? While Isabelle puts the unscrupulous gallery owner through the cracks, Tessa deals with Kyomi's way of thinking and working: her followers should wear the pain of her past on their skin like art objects and reflect it in their eyes. Did this philosophy lead to Max's death as the ultima ratio of the mind game? Isabelle Grandjean observes Tessa Ott's apparent fascination with Kyomi with great concern: does her colleague run the risk of being instrumentalised by the artist? Is the bright-eyed Kyomi trying to play cat and mouse with the police herself? Or did Beat Gessner not tell the whole truth?
