Tatort S2017E18 - Rubin - 05 - Amour fou

A bizarre black mass, melted together with a plastic deck chair in a pergola garden - nothing more is left of Enno Schopper. In their fifth case, the Berlin "Tatort" commissioners Nina Rubin (Meret Becker) and Robert Karow (Mark Waschke) have to find out what is behind the cruel death of the teacher. The first investigations lead Rubin and Karow to the comprehensive school in Neukölln's Rollbergkiez, where Enno Schopper taught before he was apparently beaten to death, doused in petrol and burned to death. But why? "Ask the kids in the neighborhood what is best done with gays," says Enno's husband Armin (Jens Harzer) to the investigators. Enno lived his gay marriage demonstratively openly - almost provocatively, at least here.
A witness claims to have seen how Enno addressed the student DuranSexually approached Bolic (Justus Johanssen) in the locker room. The teacher has been taking care of the boy from difficult backgrounds for years. He and Armin gave him a home and encouraged him. But Enno and Duran vehemently deny the rumor. Enno is on leave until clarification - now Enno Schopper is dead. Rubin and Karow want to question Duran. But he has disappeared, supposedly with his father to Croatia. Is that correct? Duran's friend Jasna (Lisa Vicari) swears, "Never! Duran hated his father." And Duran would never have harmed Enno, he adored him. Armin also asserts this, whose ironically charming manner arouses interest and distrust in Karow in equal measure.
Rubin and Karow struggle to stay out of the morass of rumor and prejudice.
