Odenthal - 71 - Leonessa

Hans and Hanne Schilling's western bar is a popular pub in the Oggersheim district of Ludwigshafen. Not only do people meet here, the innkeeper also gets involved if things are rude or illegal in the neighbourhood. When Schilling is shot behind his counter one morning, Lena Odenthal and Johanna Stern ask themselves whether his commitment was too much of a step on someone's toes. For example, young Samir, who found the body and then took a suspiciously long time to call the police. Or Vanessa, who lives on the same block as Samir and is closely connected to Leon. A young couple who definitely have more money on their hands than one would expect given their family background. They appear independent and yet seem lost.
Lena and Johanna suspect that the two offer sexual services to get money. The investigations lead the inspectors into a social structure in which the adults have given up and the young people are losing their dreams. The people in "Tatort: Leonessa" by director Connie Walther and screenwriter Wolfgang Stauch not only live geographically, but also existentially on the outskirts of the city. Especially the three young people who are the focus of the investigation. Young people who let themselves be carried away, earn the money in dubious ways and believe that nobody is interested in this - but at most the wrong people are interested.
Lena Urzendowsky, Michelangelo Fortuzzi and Mohamed Issa as well as Karoline Eichhorn, Camilla Nowogrodzki and Konstantin-Philippe Benedikt play alongside Ulrike Folkerts and Lisa Bitter
