Murders in the kite surfing scene concern Inspector Carl Sievers and his team. Their feelings get in the way of the investigation.
A corpse lies on the beach in the very north of the holiday island of Sylt. He is a young Spaniard who was one of the kitesurfers who let kites pull them across the water in the sea. When ex-professional and trainer Tom (Anton Rubtsov) is questioned about this, he allegedly did not know the victim. Shortly afterwards, Tom is attacked from behind in his mobile home, but is able to free himself – only to also lie dead on the beach a short time later. In the 22nd episode of the crime series “Nord Nord Mord”, Inspector Carl Sievers (Peter Heinrich Brix) has to do two Solve murders. “Sievers and the Dream of Flying” is on ZDF this Monday (8:15 p.m.).
Tom’s kiteboarding student Lena (Liselotte Voß) in particular is noticeably shaken. Because she had an affair with Tom and wanted to run away with him and leave her partner behind. No wonder that the Sylt investigators are having difficulty shedding light on the confusion surrounding this case. Hinnerk Feldmann (Oliver Wnuk) finally wants to make his dream of flying come true and attends a surfing course with kite instructor Mats (Nico Rogner). He used to have his eye on Inspector Ina Behrendsen (Julia Brendler) – which in turn makes Feldmann jealous.
Sievers can’t really do much more than puzzle out loud – he’s also plagued by jealousy, as he observes his beloved Tabea Krawinkel (Victoria Trauttmansdorff) with another man, to which she unexpectedly reacts in a refreshing way.
Director Alex Schaad (33, “Out of My Skin”) shows several unlucky people in love in this crime thriller, and it doesn’t seem to end well for any of them. The solution to the case, which has been tinkered with by three screenwriters, will certainly come to some viewers sooner and more easily than the investigative team. They are mostly concerned with their own sensitivities and behave surprisingly stupidly for the most part.
So we can only hope that the two inspectors and their colleague will quickly get back together and sort out their various emotional confusions. So that the next case – “Sievers and the five question marks” can be properly investigated again on January 8th at 8:15 p.m.
