The Scarlet Angel is a TV film from the ARD crime series Polizeiruf 110 . The film was produced on behalf of BR under the direction of Dominik Graf and was first broadcast on ARD on February 20, 2005 as the 263rd episode of the crime series. It is the twelfth case of the Munich police call investigator Jürgen Tauber and the ninth case for his colleague Jo "Josephine" Obermaier .
action
Inspector Tauber receives a phone call in which a young woman claims to have fatally injured someone. When searching at the alleged crime scene, however, nothing can be found apart from a trail of blood. The caller, "Flo" Engelhard, lives out her erotic needs in front of a webcam. But as a result, she has far less control of her environment than expected, as the two Munich commissioners soon discover. One of the men, for whom Flo strips on instructions, breaks the anonymity barrier and harasses her with his erotic desire. Massively threatened by him, she shoots him. Over the phone she accused herself of fatally injuring a certain Will Gérard. When Jürgen Tauber and his colleague Jo Obermaier search the caller's apartment, there is a trail of blood, but it disappears into nothing. They can't find a body. When Gérard, who was thought to be dead, suddenly reappears, he causes an unexpected turnaround in the case in a court hearing. The prosecutor and the judge are at a loss: He is acquitted of the charge of rape against Flo. The verdict has blatant consequences for Jürgen Tauber and Jo Obermaier: Because the acquitted enters the apartment where Flo and Tauber are staying. He becomes violent, knocks Tauber out and harasses Flo, who now kills him and this time informs Commissioner Obermaier by phone.
criticism
Rainer Tittelbach from Tittelbach.tv writes appreciatively “Dominik Graf is an institution within the German film and television landscape. A director who likes to try new things and has problems with the common political correctness. An incorruptible realist whose home is the police film. 'The Scarlet Angel' with Edgar Selge and Nina Kunzendorf is a jewel in the Munich 'Polizeiruf' series. "
