Tatort S2016E06 - Eisner - 37 - Sternschnuppe

The successful music manager Udo Hausberger is found strangled in his luxurious property shortly before the final round of a talent show. In search of the perfect orgasm, he seems to have strangled himself. However, his wife Angelika takes this rather calmly, as she has repeatedly warned him of the dangers of his unusual sex practices. The already irritated investigators Fellner and Eisner are then also confronted with Angelika's relationship with the much younger Benny Raggl and first have to process this sexual openness. When a crumpled piece of paper is found in the victim's throat during the autopsy, there can no longer be any talk of an accident. Hausberger had dominated and at the same time divided the Austrian music scene, which is why everyone in their environment seems to have a motive. However, the investigators found the lyrics to a song on the note and it is clear to them that someone wanted to set an example. The trackleads her to the up-and-coming talent Aris Graf, who as a finalist is given the best chance of winning.
Harald Krassnitzer and Adele Neuhauser shine in their 14th case as a humorous investigative duo. This time the team from Austria is confronted with the game about the dreams and wishes of talented artists. The director Michi Riebl, who has experience in crime fiction, could be won over for his second "crime scene". In this episode, screenwriter Uli Brée takes a bitter look at the casting industry and the Austrian music scene. Actor and singer Rafael Haider collaborated with his father on the film music and composed his own song for the fictional talent show. Also back is Thomas Stipsits as detective assistant Manfred Schimpf, who is eager to learn. Other roles include Sabrina Rupp, Aglaia Szyszkowitz, Michael Steinocher, Ruth Brauer-Kvam, Susi Stach, Claudia Kottal and Michou Friesz.
