Keller's Kind is a 2008 crime film by HR by Titus Selge and was released as the 290th episode of the Polizeiruf 110 film series . For the investigator Thomas Keller ( Jan-Gregor Kremp ) it is the fourth and last case that he has to solve.

action

While nanny Mona Herzberg is supposed to take care of little Jonathan, she is attacked and the child is kidnapped. Commissioner Keller is supposed to clear up the case. First of all, the boy's mother comes under suspicion, who was not granted custody after her divorce. However, she thinks this accusation is just a smear campaign against Aglaia, her ex-husband's new friend.

After Jonathan's pajamas with traces of blood were found in the forest and a boy of similar age was recently found dead in the forest in Offenbach , the father fears that his child is no longer alive. The nanny is also very concerned. She likes Jonathan very much and thinks Aglaia is the perpetrator. But her brother, Louis Herzberg, with whom his sister lives, makes himself suspicious. But Keller can no longer question him because he is found shot on his property. At first sight, he could not have shot himself, although a suicide note is supposed to give him faith. Keller suspects Jonathan's father because he is very irascible and threatened to kill him if he should have done something to his boy.

Keller's friend, Sophie Stein, is talking to Mona Herzberg a few days later, and her forensic nose tells her that Mona has something to hide. Keller investigates and actually finds a hiding place where Jonathan recently stayed. When Mona notices that she is being tracked, she tries to move the boy to another place, but Keller can provide her. She claims to have saved Jonathan. Her brother would have turned up that evening and wanted to steal some pictures. So they tried to fake a break-in, but that would have woken Jonathan up and because he recognized Louis Herzberg, he would have taken the boy with him and locked him up on his property. After Jonathan's father appeared and messed with her brother, she would have intervened and shot Luis because he supposedly always ruined everything and never understood what family actually meant.

background

A crime scene episode that the nanny watches on television was appropriately selected for a background scene. The twins Marvin and Marco Darmstädter were used to cast the child role of Jonathan.

criticism

The critics of the television magazine TV Spielfilm rated this police call only mediocre and said that Keller's child is: "Very well cast, but the plot is lost in trivialities." Overall, "Too much psychodrama, too little tension."
