Der Kroatien Krimi - Season 1

The 13th "Croatia crime thriller" leads into the wild and romantic prairie landscape of Dalmatia: What begins with a mysterious death leads to a bitter family conflict. As a well-rehearsed investigative duo, Jasmin Gerat and Lenn Kudrjawizki immerse themselves in an antiquated order in "The Ride of Death" in order to get to the bottom of a secret from the past. "Tatort" commissioner Karin Hanczewski slips into the role of a returnee who once again has to deal with traditional role models. Director Michael Kreindl filmed the screenplay by Ulf Tschauder, which offers false leads and surprising twists. Lenn Kudrjawizki's son Lior makes his film debut as a key witness in the investigation.
Ana Kaleb (Karin Hanczewski), who lives in England, returns to the horse ranch with her 13-year-old son Denis (Lior Kudrjawizki) to say goodbye to her deceased fatherback to her family. However, the first reunion in nine years leads to an argument. Enraged, Ana's ex-husband Vinko (Dušan Bucan) takes the boy on a night ride without her knowledge. As the two disappear into the darkness of the steppe, shots are fired. Vinko is fatally hit in the forehead! Inspector Stascha Nowak (Jasmin Gerat) and her colleague Emil (Lenn Kudrjawizki) find it difficult to interpret the clues at the scene of the crime. Denis' distorted memories also offer little clue. From the start, Stascha senses that there are deep-seated tensions between Ana, her mother (Eleonore Weisgerber) and her brother Niksa (Sebastian Milling Village).
When the head of the homicide unit is interested in why the successful veterinarian left everything here behind, she encounters disturbing connections. This is how Stascha gets on the track of further crimes.

Healed wounds from the war in Yugoslavia form the background for the 14th "Croatia crime thriller": In "Split never forgets", Jasmin Gerat, as chief investigator Stascha Nowak, has to get to the bottom of an unpunished war crime in order to clear up a coldly executed murder attempt. Max Herbrechter in the role of police chief and Kasem Hoxha as investigator come under suspicion of being involved in an act of revenge. Christoph Darnstädt, on whose idea the successful crime series is based, combines in his screenplay a cleverly constructed crime story with a tragic chapter in the war in 1991: the shelling of the port city of Split by the Yugoslavian Federal Navy, which at that time still included Croatian sailors.
The fact that her colleague Borko (Kasem Hoxha) leaves the office unusually early and shortly thereafter witnesses an assassination attempt does not initially attract much attention from chief investigator Stascha Nowak (Jasmin Gerat) . The victim, the shady investment banker Rogur (Ulrich Gebauer), was blown up in the car with a hand grenade. While the Split homicide squad begins its work, police chief Kovacic (Max Herbrechter) already knows where to toast Rogur's death: at a secret regulars' table of war veterans, to which Borko also belongs! What Kovacic knows about the victim, however, he keeps to himself. When Stascha interrogates the murdered man's wife (Julie Engelbrecht), she has an intuitive suspicion. Her colleague Emil (Lenn Kudrjawizki) is also surprised at the contradictions in the widow's descriptions.
However, Stascha soon becomes more interested in Rogur's unpunished deeds during his time as a naval officer in the Yugoslav war. Although Kovacic and Borko are reluctant, Stascha and Emil delve into the past. Anyone who lost someone back then could be a perpetrator today!
