action
When a fishing cutter pulls in its nets on the Baltic Sea in the Strelasund , a dead person is discovered. Sabine Meißner's husband did not come home. She calls her brother Jörg Lehmann, in whose company Nord Secur, which also transports money, her husband works as a dispatcher. At around the same time, the driver Piet Hansen and his colleague Paula Selow get ready, as a cash transport is about to be carried out. In an old workshop, Dirk Göttler and Maik Tillmann make final preparations for the robbery on the money transporter. The name Meißner and the sentence: "If he hasn't called by 8:30 am, we should go," he said.
Detective Inspector Nina Petersen and her colleague Detective Chief Inspector Karl Hidde are called to the corpse found in the fishing net. The man was shot from behind. They can find out his identity via his cell phone. It's about Thomas Meißner. Then the message comes in that something is wrong with the Nord Secur money transporter, which is traveling with four million euros. Suddenly the signal to the transporter is interrupted.
In the meantime, Göttler and Tillmann have taken the money transporter back to the old workshop. Tillmann quarrels with himself because he shot the driver of the money transporter. Paula Selow is holed up in the separate rear part of the armored vehicle, where she is still. Tillmann wants you to wait until Meißner comes. Göttler points out that they don't trust each other, otherwise Meißner could have given them the code for the interior of the vehicle right away. But he didn't. In the meantime, a manhunt for the money transporter has been triggered. Petersen informs the new department head Gregor Meyer about the state of affairs. It is assumed that the perpetrators obtained their insider information directly from the company, everything indicates that Thomas Meißner, the dead man from the water, was the informant.
Paula Selow succeeds in establishing a radio link to the company and subsequently to the police. She describes her situation to Commissioner Petersen. After a short time, the money transporter has started moving again, she loses her nerve and sobs that she wants to see her children. Then comes the message that the battery is about to run out. In order to save electricity, Petersen wants her to only switch the device on again when the situation changes. Petersen has a guess where the money truck might be. She drives there with Hidde while Meyer explores the situation from the helicopter.
The radio connection has broken off, fear is written on Paula Selow's face. When she hears the noise of a helicopter, she draws hope. However, these move away again. Göttler threatens Selow to blow up the car if she does not get out. When she opens the car door and points the gun at him, he shoots. Selow collapses, she begs Göttler to get help. However, he calmly packs the looted millions into his pocket and says she just wants to memorize his face, he doesn't think that will ever happen to her. Then he moves away but comes back. Selow manages to fire a shot at him, which only grazes him. Petersen and Hidde are now also on site on the former Russian military site. Göttler can be captured, he only has a small part of the booty with him. There is no trace of his accomplice. Paula Selow is transported to the clinic.
During an interrogation by Petersen, Göttler stated that it was not he, but his colleague who shot the security guard. He couldn't talk, then his colleague would finish him off. When asked about Thomas Meißner, he said he wasn't a murderer. Then a fax arrives that the prisoner has to be released, otherwise a bomb would go off in Stralsund every hour. When Petersen shows Göttler the fax, he explains that only he can help his partner to get the money. But he doesn't want to say where he hid it.
A bomb detonates in a house that Hidde and Lietz enter, both are injured, Hidde seriously, one leg has to be amputated. The perpetrator wanted the officers to enter the house, hence the visible number on the fax. The contact of the explosive device was triggered by a tripwire. Göttler is then released.
In the clinic, Lietz meets Göttler, who meets Sabine Meißner there. They had met in the clinic and had a relationship. That is also the reason why Göttler got her husband out of the way, he is obsessed with Sabine Meißner belonging to him. Both Meißner and Göttler belong to the clinic staff. A colleague of Meißner gives the reference to the man, who is probably Göttler's accomplice, and also an employee of the clinic - Maik Tillmann. Petersen is certain that the child that Meißner was expecting and having had the abortion was by Göttler. "If he finds out, he goes nuts," she says to Lietz.
Tillmann has meanwhile brought Göttler and Meißner under his control: “You planted a bomb without telling me anything, you hid the money without telling me anything, there is still something you did not tell me. Did you want to shoot me too, like Meißner? ”Asks Tillmann angrily. When they were alone, Göttler confessed to Meißner that he had a right to everything and all of the money. He just watched long enough. When Göttler learns that Meißner has aborted the child, he overreacts completely, he kills Tillmann and drives Meißner to tell her to run away. When he aimed the gun at her, Petersen and Lietz intervened and shot him.
Petersen meets with her father , who is suffering from dementia, on the shores of the Baltic Sea. He always talks about how she wants to become a police officer - he has forgotten that she has been that for ten years.

Filming, publication
Out of control was filmed from April 8 to May 12, 2010 in Stralsund and the surrounding area as well as in Hamburg and first broadcast on January 10, 2011 in prime time on ZDF ,
The first four episodes of Stralsund were released on DVD by Studio Hamburg Enterprises on March 24, 2016.
background
Director and screenwriter Martin Eigler commented on this episode that they are trying “to use the genre of the police thriller to throw light on society. A society in which more value is attached to taking than to giving and in which reckless self-assertion becomes the measure of success “.
Screenwriter Sven S. Poser stated: “The thriller genre follows fixed rules and is determined by a higher narrative speed. This often leads to an overemphasis on the plot. That's why it's important to us that the characters are multi-layered and that their interaction takes a few unexpected turns. "
Eigler and Poser had actually conceived the role of Commissioner Nina Petersen for Barbara Rudnik , with whom they had worked several times. However, the actress died before filming on the first case began.
reception
Audience rating
When it was first broadcast, the film was watched by 6.45 million viewers, which corresponds to a market share of 18.7%.
criticism
TV Spielfilm gave one of three possible points for claim and action, two for tension, pointed the thumbs up and justified the good rating as follows: “The robbery is grippingly staged, and an interesting story about police matters is also developing with Wotan Wilke Möhring . "Conclusion:" Dynamic, well-played Baltic Sea thriller. "
Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv said that 'Stralsund - Out of Control' began "rapidly". In the “psychological, calmly narrated intermediate part”, “the police come into focus before it gets down to business again”. The film is "cleverly conceived, clearly in the temporary sequence, but not without surprises in detail." The actors are "functionally cast" and "subordinated themselves perfectly to the 'system'". Conclusion: "Better than the first 'Stralsund' thriller with Wackernagel". For this, the critic gave 4.5 out of 6 possible stars.
For Kino.de , the second film with Katharina Wackernagel as Commissioner Petersen was “closer to the thriller than the crime story”. And this thriller has "class and brimming with great script ideas". Alone, "how the money transport hijackers escaped from the supposed mousetrap is worth switching on". That you are also confronted with the “probably most inharmonious team of investigators on German television” and its internal tensions, “give the story additional charm”.
Harald Keller from the Osnabrücker Zeitung praised the continuation of the first Stralsund film as "rich in unexpected twists and turns". For their story, Martin Eigler and Sven Poser “came up with an ingenious coup”. Although the perpetrators are known to the audience, "quickly a captivating event" develops. In short: “A skilful dramaturgy, psychologically coherent characters, laconic dialogues - the best crime fiction craft. And completely free of bloody horror scenarios. Rating: 5 out of 6 stars. "
Christina Tilmann from Tagesspiegel wrote 'Stralsund - Out of Control' was "an exceptionally well-made crime thriller" and not only "because Stralsund with its ports and beaches, the deserted army camps and romantic dachas on the sea as a film location is extremely picturesque" be. Christoph Chassée's work with the camera was also praised for giving the film “a cool, elegant look”, “which has nothing at all about the cute little town idyll”. Also the “timing is right: slowly, carefully, very carefully the film starts, with plenty of time to get to know the weaknesses and strengths of the people involved”.
Tilmann P. Gangloff wrote a review for evangelisch.de , which was consistently positive: “Great optical effort, first-class camera work […], excellent actors, tension from the first to the last second, plus repeated plot turns because the characters are surprising Reveal new sides: The film makes you want more thrillers from Stralsund. "
Prisma said the film was “quite excitingly staged”, but was “partly also quite improbable”. Some of the "logical breaks and weaknesses (such as the too long interrogation scenes)" are "to be observed more often", but one cannot go into more detail "in order not to reveal too much".
