Overview
- The Wiesbaden episode “Murot und der Elefant im Raum” premiered on ARD on 28 December 2025 and is now available in the ARD Mediathek with repeat broadcasts scheduled.
- Ulrich Tukur’s Felix Murot employs an experimental therapeutic interface to enter a comatose mother’s mind to seek clues to her missing five-year-old son.
- Critics highlighted a deliberate break from classic detective logic, emphasizing surreal imagery and narrative experimentation.
- Real-time audience responses ranged from enthusiasm for the bold premise to sharp complaints about plausibility, sound mix and perceived sluggishness.
- Dietrich Brüggemann wrote and directed the installment; it is Tukur’s 14th Murot case, and a 15th episode, working-titled “Murot und das Gespenst” with Emma Nova, is completed for next year.
