Klingelingeling is a television film from the crime series Tatort . The contribution produced by Bayerischer Rundfunk is the 1005th Tatort episode and was first broadcast on December 26, 2016 on ARD's first program and on SRF 1 .

The investigation of the death of a newborn leads to an organized Romanian beggar clan whose members hope for big business in the run-up to Christmas.

action

A dead baby was placed in front of the altar of the small church at the Alten Südfriedhof in Munich. Batic and Leitmayr are called and everything indicates that the child has been suffocated. Tida Dablika can be quickly identified as the baby's mother, but since she belongs to a Romanian beggar clan and does not have a permanent residence, the search for her is difficult. Radu Stelica can be identified as the clan leader and when the commissioners ask him about Tida Dablika, he states that he and her sister sent her back to Romania. Batic and Leitmayr are sure that this is not true, but cannot prove otherwise to the man. Only after Stelica's brother is found dead after an unfortunate fall does Anuscha Dablika start to get nervous. He had sent his brother to look for Anuscha Dablika after it became clear that her sister had had the child unattended and that she should hide the baby from him. Since then, Anuscha has been on the run while her sister was brought back to Radu Stelica and fell seriously ill due to the lack of postnatal care. Assuming it was as good as dead, it should be "disposed of". As a result, the two sisters can unexpectedly meet again far away from the Romanian beggar camp. Only now does Tida find out that her little son is dead. While fleeing, her sister had hugged him tightly and covered his mouth so he couldn't scream, which she would otherwise have betrayed to her pursuers. She had accidentally choked him to death. After completing the investigation, the forensic doctor finds that the child's death was a mixture of different causes. Both the premature birth and drug use by the mother during pregnancy were the triggers. He could rule out willful suffocation as the only cause.

Since it is Christmas and Batic and Leitmayr get annoyed by the annual hype about presents, the two inspectors accompany Tida and her son back to Romania so that she can bury him there. Alone she could never have afforded the return journey and the transfer of a body so shortly before Christmas.

Reviews

The Austria Bettellobby has written an open letter to the Tatort editorial team in which it criticizes the prejudiced depiction of begging people and the frequent use of the word “begging mafia”.

Johanna Bruckner at the Süddeutsche Zeitung said: “There are Christmas thrillers that are like a seedy donation campaign. It is pressed firmly on the lacrimal gland and the moral club swung, so that one would like to bend over before the-world-is-bad-pain. And when you've invested properly emotionally, the fraud is revealed. The Munich crime scene 'Klingelingeling' is such a Christmas thriller. He's degenerating into a laughing stock. "

“With the common beggar 'crime scene', the author and the director unfortunately lose their balance. [...] Of course, frustration with prosperity and the misery of the homeless often stand side by side in this world. But in 'Klingelingeling' there is no real interest in either one or the other; There is no real dynamic between cruel misery and vicious saturation. "
