In Tatort (ARD) “Funkstille” many crime fans should have a familiar face.
Will the Sunday crime thriller convince with it and as a psychological thriller?
This time editor Stefanie Thyssen is on the trail of the crime scene.
"Funkstille" - is the name of the new case from the Frankfurt crime scene (ARD).
In the case of Frankfurt, Commissioner Paul Brix (Wolfram Koch) and his colleague Anna Janneke (Maragrita Broich) will investigate on Sunday (September 13, 2020).
There is also an unexpected comeback in the new episode.
Munich - Six years ago, Tessa Mittelstaedt * got out of the
Cologne crime scene
.
For fourteen years she had played the role of
Ballauf
und
Schenk
's assistant.
Franziska's farewell in 2014 was a brilliant crime thriller piece that was moved to the late program by the protection of minors.
Since then, one has not seen much of the 46-year-old actress in the Frankfurt Tatort: radio silence, which the ARD broadcast yesterday evening, she now played a decisive role again - and remained more than pale.
It must be
because of
the direction of
Stanislaw Mucha
, because in principle all actors act in this film, which wants to be more of an agent thriller than a crime scene and some
involuntarily funny moments
has, among their options.
Frankfurt crime scene "Funkstille" - that's what it's all about
19-year-old Sebastian is found dead on the site of a former factory.
What looks like a fall from a window turns out to be murder.
The commissioners
Janneke
(Margarita Broich) and
Brix
(Wolfram Koch) find evidence that the victim had an affair with the mother of his friend and neighbor Emily (Emilia Bernsdorf).
And: Gretchen Fisher (Mittelstaedt), the name of the woman who embarked on the unimportant adventure with the boy, does not work at the US consulate, as she claims, but as a double agent.
For the CIA ("for world peace"), but also for the Russians.
When Sebastian finds out, he signs his death warrant.
The Frankfurt chief inspectors Anna Janneke and Paul Brix determine today at 8:15 pm in the new #Tatort "radio silence"!

Sounds weird to crude for a German Sunday thriller, and it is.
Mittelstaedt acts as an ice-cold mother (does she wear blue contact lenses?) And a spy so over-ambitious that her figure loses all credibility.
Emilia Bernsdorf has some good moments as Emily, in whose life there is no longer a single certainty (“Am I your daughter?”), But is often overwhelmed.
And Kai Scheve has also been seen stronger.
He plays the father and husband in this theater of agents, is also on a double mission, but with ambitions to get out, which is why he too has to die.
Poisoned by the Russian secret service.
All right.
No, this case from Frankfurt is not a big hit,
Margarita Broich
and
Wolfram Koch
can not save much either.
In spring, the ARD crime scene from Frankfurt * was ennobled by an appearance by Hannelore Elsner *.
“The good and the bad” - Hannelore Elsner in her last role
Big things were planned
for the
50th anniversary episode of
the popular
ARD crime series “Tatort”
, but then came the corona pandemic and everything else *.
By the way: the anniversary is exactly on
November 29, 2020
.
The
first "Tatort" episode
was broadcast
on November 29, 1970
with the title "Taxi to Leipzig" and
Walter Richter
as
Commissioner Trimmel
on
German television
.
Coincidentally, this day falls on a
Sunday
this year
