Crime scene in Hohenweiler: Old hate stories and dark secrets!
On June 5, 2025, filming for the new SR “crime scene” with the title “The Evil in You” ended. This episode, which was produced by Bavaria Fiction GmbH on behalf of ARD Degeto Film and Saarländischer Rundfunk, takes place in a village on the French border characterized by old hatred. The focus of the plot is the murder of the entrepreneur Emil Feidt, whose body is found under mysterious circumstances.
The Saarbrücken investigation team, including chief inspector Esther Baumann, is sent to Hohenweiler, her hometown. During the investigation, it turns out that Emil Feidt's murder may be connected to the unexplained death of his daughter Becky, who drowned five years ago. It remains uncertain whether Becky's death was an accident or a crime, with her best friend Claire Louis considered a suspect. The investigators must find their way in a web of guilt, revenge and suppressed truths.
Complex investigations
The question of whether evil can be found in an individual or in the entire community is at the center of the story. Filming took place across various locations, including Saarbrücken, Kleinblittersdorf, St. Ingbert, Saarwellingen, Lebach and Blies-Guersviller in France. The creative team is strengthened by the directing duo Luzie Loose and the screenwriters Daniela Baumgärtl and Kim Zimmermann. Jan Mayntz was responsible for the image design, while the editorial team was headed by Christian Bauer, Alexandra Fritsch (SR) and Birgit Titze (ARD Degeto Film).
Although the exact date of the first broadcast on Erste has not yet been set, it is expected in 2026.
