The first case for Radio Bremen's new "Tatort" team The Bremen police are on the alert: Shortly after the birth, Sophie Völkers' (Morgane Ferru) baby is kidnapped from the clinic, many officers are involved in the search, the capacities almost exhausted by the police. A young man is found dead in front of an abandoned industrial building. At first glance it looks like he's leaning towards his death. Who should take this case? And is there a connection between the two cases? In the tense situation, the Dane Mads Andersen (Dar Salim) has to step in again, although he is actually already sitting on his packed suitcases and on his way back to Copenhagen. At his side, Liv Moormann (Jasna Fritzi Bauer) appears, who wants to prove herself in the homicide squad.
The twothe BKA investigator Linda Selb (Luise Wolfram) is put to the side. They discover knife wounds on the dead man's body, making suicide seem unlikely. The investigation quickly reveals that the dead man is Jannik Waltz, a well-known drug dealer. Was it a murder in the drug milieu and the brothers Lenny (Nikolay Sidorenko) and Tim Maurer (Bruno Alexander), with their friend Marco Stiehler (Gustav Schmidt) know more than they reveal? And then there are Marco's father, the disappointed ex-soccer player Rudi Stiehler (André Szymanski), and his daughter Jessica (Johanna Polley), who also just had a child. During the investigation, Liv Moormann, Mads Andersen and Linda Selb have to pull themselves together quickly because they are investigating in a swamp of drugs, lies, jealousy and broken dreams.
