The perpetrator was the unsympathetic henchman of the equally unsympathetic real estate shark. A play-it-safe solution that didn't bother anyone too much while watching. It was about a Holocaust survivor who got into a difficult house-to-house war after his return from Israel: The old house in which he had once lived as a child with his family before they were deported and mostly murdered was the object a difficult litigation. A civil engineer who was in possession of important documents had been murdered. The Polish commissioner Adam Raczek (Lucas Gregorowicz) also approached the solution of the current case by researching historical Nazi crimes.
In our review we wrote: »The clash between the Jewish victim and the legal system of the country of the perpetrators is cushioned here by quickly and without consequences writing a victim identity in the biography of the Polish police officer, which he then uses as a representative of the suffering of the Holocaust - Survivors can approach.
So coming to terms with the German television audience doesn't hurt so much.
The confrontation between the old minstrel and old Behrend is written and staged even more discouraged.
The two indulge in memories of the old days, the woman asks the man for absolution.
Can the memory of childhood happiness make us forget the breach of civilization? "
We gave it 4 out of 10 points.
What do you think of the crime thriller?
This "police call" was a transitional consequence - the solo assignment of Lucas Gregorowicz as Inspector Raczek remains an exception. Gregorowicz's long-time play partner Maria Simon was last seen in the German-Polish crime thriller in January, and at the beginning of next year he will be joined by a new partner in André Kaczmarczyk. Kaczmarczy will play the German police school graduate Vincent Ross. In the first case, entitled "Hilde", it should also be about the clash of two generations of investigators.
Eoin Moore, the creator of Rostock's »Polizeiruf« with Charly Hübner and Anneke Kim Sarnau, acted as director and co-writer of the first joint episode.
There is also a lot of movement in terms of personnel: On January 9th, the last episode with Hübner, who is giving up the job of TV commissioner, will be running.
The farewell "police call" with Huebner was also staged by Moore.
