Jagdrevier is a television film from the television crime series Tatort by ARD and ORF . The film was produced by NDR and broadcast for the first time on May 13, 1973. It is the 29th episode in the crime scene series, the third case for Commissioner Finke .
action
Shortly before his sentence is over, inmate Dieter Brodschella uses the opportunity to escape while doing outdoor work (peat cutting). Thoughts of revenge drive him to it. He wants revenge for his girlfriend who was found dead in the garden of the most powerful man in Niederau, property owner Werner Kresch, after a New Year's Eve party.
Inspector Finke is sent to the small town in Schleswig-Holstein with the task of tracking down the escaped man and bringing him back to prison. But it is not that easy. The fugitive naturally does not want to be caught, and the familiar surroundings with the disused gravel pits, courtyards, old brickworks and barns offer him a variety of hiding places.
The fact that "somehow all residents are related to each other", as the local police officer Heise, himself about to retire, tells him, is another obstacle in the investigation. Your willingness to provide information will certainly be limited. The prospective retiree knows what he is talking about, as he is the step-brother-in-law of the wanted person.
In addition, Commissioner Finke has trouble with his superior Mertens in Kiel. You disagree on the assessment of two issues. An old woman took her own life. Her landlord, the most powerful man in Niederau and a potential victim of revenge, recently increased her rent. And recently, the underage fifteen-year-old girl Heike Borcherts, the daughter of the Kresch housekeeper, Mrs. Borcherts, reported her rape by a tramp to the police. In contrast to his superior, Inspector Finke sees connections with the case of the escaped prisoner.
When Brodschella carried out an attack on Kresch in his house and was able to escape the detective in his hiding place in a gravel pit, Finke fell down a steep slope and was buried under the gravel. Brodschella frees him, takes the service pistol and flees. Meanwhile, Kresch decides to act himself and not to rely on the police. Through the sister of the then murdered and extorted information from Ms. Borcherts, Kresch finds the fugitive. Finke can track him down a second time, but lets him escape. Later he said to his colleague Jessner: "We are even." When Kresch and his companion track down the fugitive Brodschella in a barn, he sets her on fire. In the meantime, Finke and Jessner also appear, and there is a shooting between the investigators and Kresch. Brodschella managed to escape from the burning barn in time and met Kresch in the arm from an ambush. Finke, on the other hand, fatally hit Kresch in the chest. Kresch's companion and Brodschella can escape.
Since Finke was unable to catch the fugitive escapee in the few days, his boss from Kiel sends a police station from Eutin to catch him. But Finke is lucky and Brodschella comes to his relatives' inn and surrenders to the inspector.
background
