Tatort — Leben Tod Ekstase, 2022

Tatort: Leben Tod Ekstase is a TV film of the famous ger­man crime series TATORT. Writ­ten and direct­ed by Nikias Chrys­sos, who’s films have been screened at Berli­nale, Tribeca and Cler­mont-Fer­rand, gave this one a very spe­cial touch. Fred­erik von Lüt­tichau plays the ger­man sol­dier Syd who, after com­ing back from a mis­sion in Soma­lia, tries to get cured from his anx­i­ety by the unortho­dox meth­ods of Dr. Adri­an Gos­er (Mar­tin Wut­tke), which take a turn for the worse.

Inspec­tors Anna Jan­neke and Paul Brix are con­front­ed with the death of six women and men, all of whom took part in a psy­chol­y­sis ses­sion and died dur­ing the ther­a­py ses­sion. As part of their inves­ti­ga­tion, they come across Dr. Adri­an Gos­er, a con­tro­ver­sial psy­cho­an­a­lyst and the sole sur­vivor. In the hope of being able to recon­struct the last hours before the crime, Gos­er, as the main sus­pect, is brought to his vil­la to inspect the crime scene. Dur­ing the inspec­tion, all entrances to the house are sud­den­ly blocked by an unknown per­son and a first shot is fired. Is Gos­er telling the truth? Is this an attack by the actu­al per­pe­tra­tor, who now also wants to exe­cute the last vic­tim?
