The Sounds of the German national anthem and the setting of a Lower Saxon town was. Do they go together? In “Tatort” they form a unit.
It is already dark when the federal police Thorsten Falke (Wotan Wilke Möhring) and Katharina Lorenz (Petra Schmidt-Schaller) lay in wait, two dark-skinned men to find those who act allegedly using fake passports. Then the access. The perpetrator escaped initially, finally missed one of them Katharina Lorenz a blow in the stomach until Falke arrives and the man strikes krankenhausreif -. Almost unconscious rage
But then the crime drama “Burnt” begins, at this Sunday (20.15 clock) to see the First, only properly. At the police station, the two men are searched. The handle gives in the bag with the dealer goods: There were football pictures! Embarrassing story for the federal police. But for asylum means the harmless Fund already no freedom. The still heavily bleeding Africans is tied up in a cell on arms and legs. Early in the morning to beat flames in the cell high, the man burns. Among the watchkeeping officers no one wants to bear the blame.
unreal? Impossible in Germany? No. The new “scene” from a screenplay by Stefan Kolditz based on the case of Oury Jalloh, who burned some ten years ago in Dessau (Saxony-Anhalt) in police custody. Even today, discussing the death of the man from Sierra Leone among professionals, friends and Justice critics excited. The former head of the police service group was convicted in 2012 of manslaughter to a fine of 10 800 euros. The Bundesgerichtshof (BGH) had 2014, all appeals against the judgment of the District Court Magdeburg back. The “Tatort” author Kolditz (“Generation War”) speaks of “obscene ridiculous penalties”. The Dessau police have impeded the investigation.
In the film determine practically equal the federal police, who had initially taken the stakeout of asylum seekers in residential status, against the small-town police. Falcon, the first after his overreaction haunts a guilty conscience wants to know. Only not the district manager Werl (Werner Wölbern), the protective imagines his team and builds in TV movies very popular wall of silence. Even the coroner Arnold (Peter Jordan) is in the middle in the bottom and want to conceal the circumstances of the fire, but his daughter has a child from the dead asylum seekers. Finally, there is a perpetrator, but morally logical for such a TV-case, many culprit.
The journalist Pagonis Pagonakis was early on the case of Oury Jalloh (about whom he also shot a German film) and recalls still remember the first press release that went public after the fire of Dessau: “Fire in cellblock – missing a person,” Pagonakis quoted at a panel discussion on 28 September from the message, to document it, what problems the police had in his eyes with the rapid elucidation of the death of Oury Jalloh. Pagonakis: “The only one who was telling the truth during the investigation, was the cleaning lady.”
For the “Tatort” team Möhring / Schmidt-Schaller “burned” the last joint cooperation in the series was. The 35-year-old actress, whose father was already in GDR times investigators in “Polizeiruf 110″, gets out. For them, the brunette Austrian Franziska Weisz moves up.
