All my boys is a television film from the crime series Tatort on ARD and ORF . The film was produced by Radio Bremen under the direction of Florian Baxmeyer and broadcast for the first time on May 18, 2014 in the program Das Erste . For Chief Detective Inga Lürsen ( Sabine Postel ) it is the 30th case in which she is investigating, and for Detective Stedefreund ( Oliver Mommsen ) the 25th case that he has to solve together with Inga Lürsen.
In this 912th crime scene episode, the investigative team has to solve the death of a garbage man who dies while trying to escape his murderer. The tricky background lets the investigators reach their limits.
action
Chief Inspector Lürsen and her partner Stedefreund are called to a fatal accident. Garbage man Mike Decker is found dead next to a garbage truck. His body shows numerous stab wounds. The investigators first go to the company to which the car belongs. There are a lot of former prisoners working there, who become very silent when the commissioners begin to ask questions. Decker's neighbors, who also work for the most part in the waste disposal company, are similarly closed and all have their own little house.
Sascha Bruns, a young colleague of Decker, appears to be the only one concerned about his death. However, he immediately disappears and goes into hiding. Nevertheless, he sends a letter to the police station in which he indirectly incriminates his colleagues. Stedefreund tries to locate him using a cell phone and looks for him together with his colleague in the garbage collectors' local pub. There they meet Uwe Frank, Decker's probation officer, who appears to be in charge of the regiment there. Unexpectedly, Pavel Symanek, the foreman of the garbage collectors, made a confession: He would have stabbed Decker in an argument. Sascha remains missing, however, because he continues to hide for fear of his colleagues.
The commissioners are gradually discovering that the head of the waste disposal company, Rolf Abels, controls a large part of the garbage disposal in the city with the help of his terrifying employees. With this “Bremen model” and the command of Uwe Frank, he uses the dependency of his “ex-cons” for his personal purposes. The men definitely have advantages of this community and a mafia-like code. It will be life-threatening for dropouts if they want to break away from the group.
Lürsen tries to intimidate Rolf Abels by making him understand that she is on the trail of him and his machinations. As soon as she has found Sascha, she will be able to prove that to him with the help of his statements. Then she meets with Uwe Frank, who in turn makes it clear to her that there is nothing she can do about him. With the help of various hints, she slowly understands how the “garbage mafia” works. A lot of conclusions can be drawn about the residents on the basis of household waste. He knows details of Lürsen's private life, which shocked her.
Sascha is now secretly meeting with Stedefreund. While he assures him that he wants to protect him, some of Sascha's work colleagues appear and their lives are both in danger. Luckily for him, Sascha escapes and Stedefreund is beaten to hospital. In addition, the next day there is an explosion in a waste-to-energy plant in Bremen. Also a sign of Abel's power, because the owner did not want to work with him on his terms.
Sascha tries to send a video to the police that shows the methods of the "garbage mafia". Mike Decker had done it and given it to him for custody, but the attempt failed. Only with luck will he escape the execution of his colleagues, for which he will be expelled from their community. However, he should not see his sister again. He manages to get to the police and asks Stedefreund to keep his promise. He would like to claim the witness protection program for himself and his sister and would testify for it.
The situation comes to a head when Sasha's colleagues atone for his betrayal and brutally abuse his sister. Accordingly, the investigation intensified and the police paralyzed Abel's entire company. This causes the garbage to build up in the city and the waste incineration plant runs empty. The pressure this builds up causes Abel and Frank to give in. They deliver the real Decker killer: Tarik and Katte. The investigators have no evidence against the head of the organization and will therefore not be able to crush their mafia.
Sascha was so intimidated by the action against his sister that he promised Uwe Frank not to betray the boys and to stay with the family.

criticism
Lars Schmidt approves of T-online.de: “The film may initially surprise and confuse you due to its sometimes exaggerated images and settings. [...] Bright colors and gloomy scenes alternate. The dominant soundtrack is immediately noticeable. […] That is unusual, but it brings a breath of fresh air to the often boring 'Tatorte' of Bremen. In addition, director Florian Baxmeyer repeatedly succeeds in building up threatening moments of tension. His mix of mafia thriller, psychodrama and street gang crime thriller knows how to please thanks to excellent actors. "
Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv writes: “This 'crime scene' relies on too much genre recycling and too little of its own style. Florian Baxmeyer's staging is no exception - although the concept with the commenting songs, all of them classics, is a good idea. "
Christian Buß at Spiegel Online says: “The director is now in top form for 'Alle Meine Jungs'. A couple of times one is afraid that the difficult narrative arrangement will collapse. But it doesn't. Which is also due to the characters, who remain pleasantly ambivalent. The garbage collectors are not a group of marginalized social figures who depend on our pity. Rather, they form an 'honorable society' - with all its advantages and, above all, disadvantages. 'Good Fellas' in the garbage man look. "
Holger Gertz from Süddeutschen.de says: “Lürsen's and Stedefreud's investigations in Bremen's 'Tatort' are half a milieu study, half a parody of orange-clad garbage collectors who come across as a mixture of Hells Angels and Chippendales. It is drawn with love, but too much. "
The critics of the television magazine TV-Spielfilm judge this crime scene similarly: “Director Florian Baxmeyer describes the 'Müllieu' as a rough parallel world. And he stages it with the courage to use garish stylistic devices: slow motion, ironic commentary songs and cool sayings. But in spite of the stylistic overkill, the characters and story don't seem implausible for a single second. ”Conclusion:“ Bright milieu thriller - anything but rubbish! ”
