To see potential murder victim in the “crime scene” from. The groggy-looking woman comes from the disco, night stalking through dark alleys and pursued by a man who swoops down on them promptly. But instead of a murder we see quick, raw sex. The woman comes next with buns home, just in time before the kids get up. The husband smells what was going on, and grabs the suitcase. The woman looks then affected. And we do not recognize less affected: This is the Commissioner

Hardly better off her new partner.. The first stands in Plänterwald. A dull, dead area. Complete the Look, his former colleague here had died. Drowned, they say, but he was shot. Someone has falsified the autopsy report. And it could well be that it was this commissioner himself. In any case, a graver sin on him, and makes him grumpy, arrogant and inedible.



Earlier it was cute

It is always a Krux with new Commissioners: You have to really introduce sustainable, must create voltages at which the colleagues rub and can process. In the former Berlin “Tatort” duo Boris Aljinovic and Dominic Raacke they came up with the somewhat clumsy Pat-and-Patachon principle of the small and the great, what the gentlemen then followed Actor long. In addition Raacke Aljinovic took off at the beginning of the parking lot, what gave him the handcuffs. This has, compared to the new Berlin-based duo, almost cute.

Meret Becker and Mark Waschke any case are as Commissioner Nina Rubin and Commissioner Robert Karow only about enough with it himself busy. The first meeting is correspondingly cool. You: “Did not you want to come only in two days?” He: “surprise.” They tend to work against each other and trust as not on the road. It is also clear that both rush into work to distract from their own demons. That leaves plenty of potential for further episodes open.

After Raacke and Aljinovic were quite rudely dismissed from the police force, the RBB has left nothing to chance for the new duo. The screenplay was written by Stephan Kolditz, of which the success miniseries “Generation War” comes, directed by the triple Grimme Award Winners Stephan Wagner. The first episode came in for TV unfamiliar conditions of scarce time: was shot in November, cut in January, the result is already aired. Other “crime scenes” are there much longer. “The Mule” is nevertheless not become a quick shot.



affront to the “crime scene” rules

Where the case itself by introducing of the main characters first time gets a minor matter. There is – an affront to cherished “Tatort” rules, according to which the body has to emerge after five minutes – although a corresponding pool of blood and thus a crime scene, but the corresponding body found after 40 minutes. This makes the new Berlin “Tatort” immediately clear that one can certainly break with viewing habits. Then three different films are only times in parallel.

The Meret Becker drama, if only the man leaves home and then also the older son. The Mark-Waschke drama because the investigators clearly not voluntarily change from Narcotics Division in the homicide and still has a bone to pick a personal chicken. And then the 13-year-old girl who howls at the beginning with a bloody shirt on the Kurfürstendamm and then flees with her older brother in front of their captors. The girl has namely smuggled drugs from Mexico with a friend, a so-called Muli, as pack mules, with hundreds of parcels in the stomach. When the girlfriend went wrong, to save the drugs, she was literally gutted. Now, the drug traffickers are also behind the 13-year-olds ago, which still carries a kilo of cocaine in it.



The third main role of the city

Berlin, was the aim of the RBB, will apply in the new” more back into the picture, the city will play the third main role Tatort “episodes. This is what the makers more than internalized. Begins in the middle of the Kurfürstendamm, the first episode, then leads into the periphery, in the Plänterwald and consigned to the dustbin Schmargendorf where the body is finally recovered. And the dealer as the Commissioners are equally behind the young people here, on RAW Friedrichshain, the York bridges, the Stuttgarter Platz to the urban hospital. The Plänterwald fallow with the overturned dinosaur is perhaps a bit tiring as a metaphor for being lost a little – this is something even from the US thriller “Hanna” -., It was but also turned to the still completely virgin BER airport, whither little brother and sister hide and where it comes to the big showdown

Never have but we are dealing with tourist glossy postcard images. The film was shot with feverish nervous camera so that Berlin more like Brooklyn acts, definitely not as good as some of zehlendörflich-earlier episodes. The new Berlin “crime scene” so that gains some rough edges, Broken what suits him very well. Like the first case is not yet come quite as exciting: The tone, the style, the characters agree that before. So that must continue like this
