A young man goes fishing at night on the Thaya, the border river to what was then Czechoslovakia. Shots are fired, but the authorities in the socialist neighboring country deny an incident at the border. The man does not return home. Decades later, his son Max, a journalist, rolls up the story again. At the same time, the body of a 45-year-old Czech named Radok is being fished from the Thaya. An accident? For Moritz Eisner and his colleague Bibi Fellner, the strange case that saves them from dealing with boring mountains of files is just right. While the chief inspector finds out that Radok was murdered, his colleague takes an involuntary bath in the river. The reporter Max pulls her out of the ice-cold water and lets the astonished inspector into the research about his missing father: At the time of the Prague Spring, the Czechoslovak secret service lured refugees from the republic into a trap with a fictitious border. The insidious plan only worked thanks to the cooperation of young Austrians, who played an inglorious role in it. Apparently Radok wanted to hold the former collaborators accountable. Was that why he had to die? Written by ARD Das Erste See less
