... and the music is playing is a TV film from the crime series Tatort . The report produced by Bayerischer Rundfunk was first broadcast on December 11, 1994 in the first series as the 300th episode in the series. It is their ninth case for Commissioners Ivo Batic and Franz Leitmayr .
action
The folk music show Bunt ist die Welt is to be recorded. In advance there is anger about the sequence of appearances. As Nele Hinrichs, production manager and assistant to the film producer Aumann, Hermann Beck and his daughter Jenny announced that Anton hunters, as always, was reserved for the last appearance, reacts especially Hermann Beck surly. Shortly before the extremely successful folk music star Anton Jäger makes his appearance, Jens Kühn, a tabloid journalist with great influence in the folk music industry , appears in his dressing room . Jens Kühn holds Anton Jäger a "crime" from his past that he will make public. This leads to a heated argument between the two, which culminates in the reporter grabbing a chair and hitting the singer over the head. Anton Jäger collapses dead. Jens Kühn leaves the scene without noticing that Jenny Beck sees him leave Anton Jäger's cloakroom.
After Anton Jäger has been found dead, Jenny Beck wants to report her observation to the police, but is prevented from doing so by her father. Hermann Beck plans to capitalize on the daughter's knowledge.
The Commissioners Batic and Leitmayr are charged with the investigation. Carlo Menzingerstraße, also part of the team, finds out that hunters 15 years ago in an accident with hit and run was involved. At that time a young woman died. Franz Leitmayr then visits the witness Linke, whose wife Lucie was the only witness in the accident at the time. Lucie Linke is now dead. Linke tells Leitmayr that his wife withdrew her testimony at the time, because Anton Jäger had offered her money, and the young woman would not have come back to life after the testimony. When asked, the inspector also learns that a reporter was there a few days ago who wanted to know everything exactly and gave him “cash” for it. It turns out that it was Jens Kühn.
Hermann Beck has since promised Jens Kühn on the head that he is the murderer of Anton Jäger. He demands that the journalist see to it that a large article with pictures of Jenny and the entire family appears in his newspaper. In it, he should take back his defamatory statements made in the room, which would have damaged Jenny's career very much. Jens Kühn had launched in his articles at the time that the difficulties in Beck's marriage at the time were due to the fact that Beck and his daughter had an intimate relationship . In folk music, bold has been something of the last resort. "Thumbs up - thumbs down" could decide a career. The folk music singer Ellen Wagner dubbed him the " Reich-Ranicki of folk music".
After an unpleasant conversation with Kühn, Batic lets himself be carried away to a reporter to make a thoughtless remark that brings Kühn into disrepute. When the newspapers reported about it the next day, Jens Kühn was picked up by his editor in chief Dr. Meyer temporarily on leave, so dropped.
Jenny, who had already been severely threatened by Jens Kühn once, is just recording a new title in the studio when Kühn appears and lures the sound engineer out of the studio under a pretext. When the young woman sees the journalist, she is scared to death and flees, Kühn follows her. In the meantime Batic, Nele Hinrichs and Hermann Beck have also arrived in the studio. With presence of mind, Nele turns on the lights in the dark studio. Jens Kühn can be arrested.
