Mein Revier is a television film from the television crime series Tatort by ARD , ORF and SF .

The film was produced by WDR and broadcast almost simultaneously for the first time on November 11, 2012 by the stations Das Erste and EinsFestival . It is the 849th episode in the crime scene series and the second case with Jörg Hartmann as chief inspector Faber in Dortmund , as well as chief inspector Martina Bönisch ( Anna Schudt ), chief inspector Nora Dalay ( Aylin Tezel ) and chief inspector Daniel Kossik ( Stefan Konarske ).

action

The pimp and dealer Serkan Bürec was shot at his desk in Dortmund's northern part of the city, in the immediate vicinity of Commissioner Nora Dalay. He was considered the right hand man of the seedy businessman Tarim Abakay, an unpopular but influential agitator of the area. The traces on the scene suggest that the victim was actually executed and that there was very likely a witness. In the opinion of Chief Detective Peter Faber, it was probably a prostitute.

The patrol officers Rainer Polland and Paul Klose were the first at the scene. For them it is their turf and they do not like the fact that people on the homicide squad are overturning their usual order. In addition, Faber is always offended in his team, but he usually has the right “nose”. So he actually finds the murder weapon because he intuitively rummages through the dumpster on the street.

Tarim Abakay is one of the main suspects for the investigators. When the inspectors Faber and Bönisch want to question him, they witness how the patrolmen Polland and Klose are back to tidying up their area. Abakay knows that the victim had an argument with Polland and even reported him for excessive police violence.

At the same time, Nora Dalay and Daniel Kossik question the Bulgarian residents of the district. Since Polland and Klose claim that a man named Marek Bojanov only recently had a violent argument with the murder victim, Dalay and Kossik are looking for him. Allegedly the dispute was about the high rent Abakay demands from his Bulgarian compatriots for the primitive and shabby apartments.

When the forensics department was able to secure the fingerprints of the prostitute Elena Zvetkova at the crime scene, Bönisch was certain that she was the witness they were looking for and that they had to find them as soon as possible. Faber immediately discovers a connection to a case that Chief Inspector Krüger is currently working on, in which an Ivo Zvetkov was burned in a car. According to the photos, the burned victim could have been Elena Zvetkova's father. Faber then wants to take on this case as well, which causes his colleague Krüger's displeasure. He insists that this is “his case”, which does not fall within Faber's area of ​​responsibility. Bönisch tries to mediate, as she too is of the opinion that both murders are related. Bürec, as Abakay's henchman, may have killed Elena's father because he wanted to report Abakay's machinations.

Nora remembers that Polland's wife Sonja works as a social worker in the neighborhood and therefore may know where Elena could be. She used to work as a prostitute herself and knows the problems of her protégés. However, a questionnaire turned out to be negative, as Ms. Polland claims not to know where the person sought is. However, she knows that Elena and Marek Bojanov are a couple.

Faber can't contain himself and provokes Abakay. He tells him that he will not rest until he can prove that he has broken the law. The next day, Abakay's people cause trouble in the Bulgarian quarter, so that the police are called for help. During this action, Dalay and Kossik discover Elena's hiding place. At the same time, Faber succeeds in finding Bojanov. Since he has once again implemented this action single-handedly, he gets the displeasure of Bönisch, who accuses him of not being able to work in a team.

Sonja Polland offers her help for the interrogation of Elena because she thinks that the young woman would trust her. So far, Elena has only stated that she hadn't seen anything. The sudden appearance of Mrs. Polland gives Bönisch the suspicion that, since she couldn't stand Bürec, she might have something to do with the murder. The murder weapon was found in a raid in which Rainer Polland was present, but it does not prove that it was in his possession.

While Faber and Bönisch follow their forensic instincts, events come to a head. Polland threatens Abakay with a pistol and calls on a public prosecutor to take his confession. While snipers are already stationed around the building and it is foreseeable that Polland will be in mortal danger if he does not decide to give up, his wife admits in view of the threatening situation her husband is in that she shot Bürec and Elena did not wanted to betray.

Production notes and background

While the shooting of the first Dortmund crime scene took place in the entire Dortmund city area, as well as in Lünen and Cologne , the shooting of Mein Revier mainly concentrated on the north of Dortmund . Many scenes were created on Borsigplatz and the surrounding streets. The scenes in the back courtyards of Nordstadt mainly focus on past squatting and littering of empty houses on Mallinckrodtstrasse . Outside of the northern part of the city, scenes were created at the Dortmund police headquarters on Markgrafenstrasse in Ruhrallee and on the newly emerging promenade of Lake Phoenix in Hörde .

Title song Mein Revier by Yusuf Erdugan, artist name "The EDY 168".

Private matters of the inspectors: While Faber is investigating, a stranger regularly deposits photos and newspaper articles in Faber's office about the car accident in Lübeck in which the inspector's wife and daughter died. The inspector fell into violent mood swings. After he doggedly hit a car with a baseball bat to clarify the Bürec case and later put himself in a life-threatening situation and ended up in a sobering cell, when he found another envelope, he beats his desk short and sweet, when, looking at the photos from the envelope, Nora notices that Faber's wife must have been alive after the accident. The question arises as to who might be interested in the Commissioner's psychological breakdown.

Reviews

Rainer Tittelbach from tittelbach.tv said: “The second Dortmund 'crime scene' comes straight to the point. The pace is high, the reality effect is great, so you don't notice much of the conventional dramaturgy, especially since the brittle chief inspectors are again conspicuously from the role. Not a film to 'love', but with a high potential for fascination. "

At the Frankfurter Allgemeine , Matthias Hannemann criticized quite hopefully and said: “This troop will come if you let them. And Peter Faber brings the green laser pointer, this rough-hewn, which if necessary also goes into a garbage can because it comes from Dortmund and not Dusseldorf, hopefully with this opportunity again. [...] My 'Revier' is staged well, but the story could be more exciting. "

Carsten Heidböhmer from Stern.de felt: “The new Dortmund team [is developing] its potential for the first time: Jörg Hartmann, as Commissioner Faber, is not 'Tatort' compatible - that is precisely what makes him so worth seeing. […] This commissioner is a solitaire on German television. He stands out from all the lukewarm, politically correct investigative personalities, Jörg Hartmann delivers a furious depiction of this traumatized person. "

The critics of the TV magazine TV Spielfilm pointed with the thumbs up, gave one of three possible points for humor, ambition, action and eroticism, two for suspense and drew the conclusion: “Very pointed and super played. […] Slowly the inner worlds of the strange investigator Faber open up in the heated, grim strip […] - and his three colleagues are also gaining in shape. "

Holger Gertz from Süddeutsche gave an appreciative assessment: "If the authors now write stories for [Faber] that are as touching as the inspector himself, then the 'Tatort' from Dortmund will be a must."

Critical points arose for T-online.de , because: “For friends of thrillers with low tones, the team is likely to be exhausting just because of Faber's crazy actions. [...] His role as a widowed cop with barely controllable depression “is unmistakably loud.
