action
Wolfgang Weber, the owner of the western town “El Doroda”, is found dead from the Ilm - he was disguised as an Indian and was apparently killed with an ax. The Weimar commissioners Dorn and Lessing found out that he apparently wanted to terminate his tenants. During geothermal boreholes it was recently discovered that rare earths are located under the site of the western town , which make the area very valuable. This reduces the case to two main suspects: the managing director of the western town Heinz Knapps and the entrepreneur Ellen Kircher, who is interested in rare earths and whose company had carried out the drilling work.
Dorn infiltrates the western town as a rider. She finds out that Knapps had a right of first refusal if Weber sells his property. There is a dispute between Knapps and Kircher, shortly afterwards Ellen Kircher is also dead. Knapps is finally established as a two-time murderer and fled to his house to pack things up for his escape. When Lessing tries to arrest Knapps there, both are taken prisoner by Nick, Ellen Kircher's son. He turns on the gas stove to kill Knapps and Lessing. Dorn can just save Lessing just before Nick Kircher triggers the explosion by pressing the light switch with Goethe's last words (“More light!”) And blowing up the house, Knapps and himself.
background
The premiere took place on December 19, 2018 in the German National Theater Weimar .
The film was shot from June 19, 2018 to July 19, 2018 in Weimar and the surrounding area; For the scenes in the western town "El Doroda" the western town Old Texas Town in Berlin-Spandau served as a backdrop. After the one-week filming was over, many props remained in Old Texas Town, such as gold panning racks, horse troughs, gallows and the chickens.
The name of the western town is a combination of the name " Eldorado ", the legendary gold country of America and later a synonym for a gold digger settlement, as well as the place name broadcast -roda , which is particularly widespread in Thuringia .
The sentence with the “trouser worm”, with which Dorn counters Tom Wörtche's sexual advances, comes from Kurt Tucholsky's story Gripsholm Castle .

reception
Reviews
"The Weimar" Tatort "is a parody of western films and western adventure parks. Saddle up, ride with us! "
“This episode is also a kind of double episode, in which the parody is delivered parallel to the actual case. If you feel too little tension, you can play with the Tatort format and the Western genre. And that remains above all: the fun. "
“A playful ensemble, a very coherent staging, perfect equipment. A great New Year's treat! "
