Berg - 04 - Für immer und dich

Summer heat, shimmering light, mild nights. A man and a teenager drive through the Black Forest, close to each other, but also with an underlying tension. A couple? Or rather father and daughter? When a teenager steals a laptop bag from the car, the man gets so nervous that he follows the thief down the winding road. A short time later he has the bag back - but the thief and his moped are lying in the abyss. The police quickly realized that there were external influences and that the driver had fled. Friedemann Berg takes over the investigations, while Franziska Tobler takes care of the case of Emily Arnold, who has been missing for two years. Her mother believes she saw her daughter alive.
Friedemann is already familiar with this and expects another disappointment, but Franziska is still investigating the matter meticulously. And there is a breakthrough: When the accident car in Friedemann's case is tracked down, DNA from Emily Arnold is found in it. It seems possible that the now 15-year-old is actually still alive. But then it is unlikely that she is traveling alone. With combined forces, Franziska and Friedemann search for Emily and a stranger... Summery lightness and latent threat determine the atmosphere in equal measure, in which director Julia von Heinz and screenwriter Magnus Vattrodt explore the relationship between a teenager and a much older man.
A relationship that not only puzzles the inspectors from the Black Forest and that is kept in limbo by the young Meira Durand and Andreas Lust in all their ambivalence.
