action

The insurance salesman Jost Brüggmann is found shot dead on the banks of the Rhine shortly after an argument with his wife. The widow quickly becomes entangled in contradictions during the interrogation by the Cologne commissioners Ballauf and Schenk . The victim also owned a revolver, which later turned out to be a murder weapon and has now disappeared.

On the evening of the crime, Ahmet Turgut received a striking number of calls from both Brüggmanns, as did the young Turkish woman named Fatma Akinici. Schenk wants to question her and collides with her father, who tries to shield her from the male world. As it quickly turns out that Fatma Akinici is friends with Ahmet Turgut, he is questioned immediately. He works together with Kalle Plöcker in the workshop for vintage cars, which belongs to Brüggmann's neighbors Roman and Michelle Vandenberg.

Ballauf and Schenk's investigations reveal that Ahmet Turgut and Kalle Plöcker work for an escort service, including for Lene Brüggmann and Michelle Vandenberg. Lene Brüggmann has demonstrably paid a considerable sum to Ahmet for his friendship services and the expected sum insured is a sufficient motive for murder for Ballauf and Schenk. Unexpectedly, someone anonymously sent a photo to the police station showing Ahmet on Brüggmann's car on the night of the murder. However, Brüggmann was still alive at the time. When Schenk tries to question him, he finds Ahmet stabbed to death in his apartment.

Fatma Akinici and her father are then interrogated. Mehmet Akinci says that he wanted to have taken the photo and saw Brüggmann and Ahmet quarrel and then shoot Ahmet. On the night of the crime, he only wanted to monitor his daughter, since he assumed that Ahmet wanted to meet his daughter and thus observed the murder. But it soon turns out that Fatma herself was involved in the murder, which she said was an accident, and that her father only wanted to protect her. She had loved Ahmet very much and when she found out from the press reports about the Brüggmann murder what a part-time job her boyfriend was doing, she freaked out. Her father shoots himself shortly afterwards and tries to commit the murder with a written confession. But Ballauf and Schenk realize that his daughter must have killed Ahmet, which she then admits.

Reviews

Tilmann P. Gangloff from tittelbach.tv praises the “extraordinary [n] production by young director Manuel Flurin Hendry at this crime scene. […] Hendry's handwriting is particularly evident in the connections: he stages changes in images and scenes with a skill that is so impressive that it almost distracts from the plot. […] Similar to Hendry's staging, Ehry's dialogues are a bit off track. Especially during the interviews by the commissioners, the conversations sometimes develop in an unusual direction because the interviewees leave things in life unasked. [...] All of this doesn't necessarily make 'love in the afternoon' a big 'crime scene', but it's definitely worth seeing. "

The critics of the TV magazine TV Spielfilm judge: "The well-cast story about disappointed love and abused trust does not run smoothly, but the investigators entertain again with the usual brash verbal contributions." Conclusion: "No highlight, but passable tension."
