Featured review
A solid episode but not the first one!
This was the first episode available in the Tattort Vienna series in the US. Looking these up though on IMDb one sees that this character has been in this series in many earlier episodes. So the character and his situation are not well introduced, but since this isn't his first episode for viewers in Austria, I'm not really surprised by that, but you need to be prepared when you watch this for sort of being dropped into the middle of a character who is all in all in 59 episodes, even if they're not all available in the US. So we don't really know much about the main characters we start and there's no real attempt to introduce him. But we do find out he has a teenage daughter. He's apparently a single parent, but she's really very much a background character, although her story and her current boyfriend, who's clearly a Muslim plays well against the general story where the murder that the inspector investigates involves a Muslim who is killed in a community, which is very much under tension in Western Austria. Even the local policeman who is a Muslim, has a lot of issues with the community. In that, he seems much more assimilated to Western culture, but he still speaks Turkish and understands the original culture and is very much a Muslim. So we see conflict at all levels in this episode, but it plays very well.
The mystery is fair. It's not terribly and complex and the solution is not too surprising, but it does hold the attention and with the mountainous region in Western Austria, it's a mystery with a very beautiful backdrop. Although some of the situations are expected, it never gets quite to the point of being banal and it does hold your interest for the full time. Available in the US with subtitles starting in 2023 this episode actually dates from 2009.
This series which is available in the US on MHz networks, if it is like the other Tattort series (e.g., Lindholm) the episodes will not necessarily be shown in order or anything like order despite the way they're listed by MHz and I do recommend that you look them and find out when they were produced and if possible try to watch them in order so far as is possible.
Typical also on these MHz subtitled shows the subtitles here are not a fully accurate translation, but a general representation of what's said. My sense is also that the subtitles were generated by a Brit because of the expressions that are used for the subtitles in English, which often seem quite odd.
