Feindbild is a German crime film by Eoin Moore from 2011. It is the 316th episode in the film series Polizeiruf 110 and the third case for Chief Inspector Alexander Bukow ( Charly Hübner ) and the LKA officer Katrin König ( Anneke Kim Sarnau ). The main guest stars of this episode are Andreas Patton , Jürg Löw and Aleksandar Jovanovic .

After a Serbian security officer has been murdered, Bukow and König are able to identify a family man as the perpetrator, who is fighting against a pharmaceutical company. In this case, Bukow is confronted directly with his archenemy Subocek.

action

Chief Detective Alexander Bukow has to undergo a questioning by Katrin König from the LKA. Although both of them have already solved a few cases together, the situation is different this time because Bukow is the accused. His colleague is investigating a corruption allegation against him, because during his service time in Berlin Bukow also dealt with the Serbian gang leader Zoran Subocek. This had announced that Bukow had been his informant. After Bukow's son was kidnapped in Berlin for a few days on behalf of Subocek, evidence against the Serb disappeared. Bukow is now blamed for this. From the photos that have emerged it can be seen that Subocek Bukow and his family are also being monitored and observed in Rostock.

After Miroslaw Badza, who took the photos of Bukow and König , is found murdered, König thinks it is possible for a short time that her colleague Bukow was violent against the man. But it quickly turns out that a Lutz Brückmann was last seen with the victim and that this is also very likely the perpetrator. Brückmann led a private campaign against Dr. Ferdinand Geiger, the head of a pharmaceutical company, because his five-year-old daughter had died after being vaccinated with a new, not yet adequately tested serum. Badza worked for Geiger, which is why the two of them clashed.

Since Miroslaw Badza was not only a Serb, but also the cousin of Zoran Subocek, this calls the mafia chief into action personally. For Bukow it is clear that Brückmann is a death row inmate. That brings Bukow into a huge conflict. He confides in König that he betrayed the key witness who tried to testify against Subocek and manipulated evidence in order to save his son's life. If he were to arrest the man now to protect Brückmann from Subocek, it would be a death sentence for him and his family.

During the investigation, the officials come across the alleged suicide of an employee of the pharmaceutical company Brückmann is fighting against and against whom he has collected evidence, which is all the more reason for König to protect his life. According to Brückmann, the informant wanted to go to the police and the alleged suicide was the result. According to König's findings, even public prosecutor Evers is involved in the pharmaceutical scandal.

Brückmann is now running amok and penetrates Geiger's villa. Before he can harm Geiger and his daughter, Bukow and König appear. But Subocek is also in the villa and shoots Brückmann, whereupon he is arrested by Katrin König. Bukow remains skeptical and fears the consequences of the Serbian mafia.

background

Katrin König was commissioned by the LKA to observe Bukow, as there were some ambiguities in his past, which culminated in a corruption allegation against him. This conflict between the two investigators runs through their joint cases.

criticism

Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv judged: “Two ticking time bombs are making Rostock unsafe and things will be tight for Bukow. Sarnau and Hübner continue where they started in 2010: physically, dynamically, realistically. Atmosphere triumphs over dramaturgy: Whodunit is not! The handheld camera is king, the perception is fleeting. It's more likely that you don't notice something than that everything is explained. 'Feindbild' works with allusions, associations, omissions. With so much realism it is questionable whether the pig will get what it deserves in the end. "

In the FAZ , Hannes Hintermeier writes: “Until halfway through, [the director] is busy tying up the case, then time is running out to unravel. So the film is pushing the pace, increasingly relying on action; the hand-held camera, which Martin Farkas often uses, gives the scenery something hazy. "

Torben Gebhardt from Oddsmeter.de judged: “A very complex, sometimes hardly comprehensible construct is developing. [...] The viewer is partly left behind, as is the viewing pleasure. The question is also how long the audience can make friends with Bukow as an antihero, or whether the plot could wear out too much over time. Who wants to see crime heroes permanently afflicted with problems on the television screen? The future will show."
