Tschill Out is a television film from the crime series Tatort . It is their 1116th episode and the sixth case of the investigative duo Nick Tschiller and Yalcin Gümer . By the North German Radio commissioned production was the first on January 5, 2020 for the first time on television.

action

Nick Tschiller, traumatized after the violent death of his wife (see: Tatort: ​​Purgatory ), helps the educator Patti Schmidt on the island of Neuwerk with the care of young people who are difficult to educate and is waiting for his disciplinary proceedings. Meanwhile, his colleague Yalcin Gümer and the new LKA colleague Robin Pien are investigating a case of drug trafficking on the Darknet. When Gümer wants to bring two key witnesses from the radical left, the siblings Eddie and Tom Nix, to the airport, the trio is shot at at a motorway service area and Eddie Nix is ​​killed. Gümer brings the surviving witness Tom to Tschiller in Neuwerk, because he suspects a mole in his own ranks. Gümer and Pien try to find the mole and those who murdered the key witness, while Tschiller questions Tom, who, as a left-wing extremist, is negative and extremely suspicious of police officers. Tom is only slowly gaining confidence in Tschiller.

Gumber finds out that it was Eddie who gave the assassin their destination, and that there is no mole. Also, it's not just drug, but primarily child porn that Eddie was directly involved in. Pien and Gümer can dig up child pornography and stop a hit man who traveled to Neuwerk to kill Tom.

background

The film was shot from March 19, 2019 to April 25, 2019 in Hamburg and on Neuwerk . Both places were already scenes of the episodes Death on Neuwerk (episode 328) and Death before Scharhörn (episode 461) with the investigator duo Stoever and Brockmöller .

While all previous Tatort episodes about Nick Tschiller were characterized by a lot of action , this one seems decelerated. The previous directing and screenwriting duo (director: Christian Alvart , script : Christoph Darnstädt ) was replaced by Eoin Moore (director and screenplay) and Anika Wangard (screenplay). Moore is a "specialist for subdued but fine tones", says Claudia Tieschky in the Süddeutsche Zeitung . With Anika Wangard he developed the police call 110 from Rostock.

Reviews

“As Tschiller, Til Schweiger no longer fights with his firearms - but with his feelings. We are touched, ”writes Christian Buß in Spiegel Online . He is now the "Lost Action Hero, tired, lost in the world, in the autumn of his work". Schweiger wanted it that way, NDR and ARD should have been happy, finally no expensive collisions. “Both parties still had contracts to fulfill. And they made something really interesting out of the predicament. "

It is strange to see "how in Tschill Out the silence and the crime scene (in the sense of a very common case) wrestle with each other", says Matthias Dell in Die Zeit . He writes of the “simplicity of the Schweiger figure”, but finds positive things in the development, which the NDR seems to want from the figure: “Completely normal police work, where you don't have to save your own child every time. Or beloved women die. "

Gianluca Wallisch from derStandard.de leaves the television film at a loss. He names three examples of the protagonists' lack of empathy . Tschiller recommends to the key witness hidden at Neuwerk who mourns his brother: “Just don't think about it.” “Huh?” Wonders Wallisch. Tschiller's colleague Gümer reacts to the emotional stress of a young police officer after having shot a person, helplessly with “Do we want to use you?” Wallisch again: “Huh?” When Tschiller confesses to the director of the youth home at Neuwerk that he has not yet overcome his problems (“ I still have a lot of stuff in me. Feelings and all that. "), She says:" Well, buy yourself a guide and all that. "Wallisch:" Huh? "
