A fatal cut in the neck of a royal mummy, the inexplicable disappearance of two princes or the questionable suicide of an artist – the Cold Case series re-rolls the darkest chapters of history. Using the tools of modern forensics and criminalistic know-how, the Cold Cases from Rames III to Marilyn Monroe are rolled up anew, putting the prominent figures of history in a new light and questioning learned knowledge.
Actress Florence Kasumba, known among other things as Tatort commissioner, leads the way through the unsolved cases.
