Overview
- The episode, titled "Murot und der Elefant im Raum," aired on ARD on December 28 at 20:15 and is available in the ARD Mediathek.
- Ulrich Tukur’s 14th Felix Murot case hinges on a fictional neurofeedback device that links him to a comatose mother’s psyche in a bid to locate her missing five-year-old son.
- Writer-director Dietrich Brüggemann leans into dreamlike visuals and inner-world sequences, continuing the Murot strand that blends crime with psychological exploration.
- Reviews highlight inventive imagery and playful form, while some fault the film for scant suspense and deliberate departures from procedural logic, and online reactions were divided.
- The cast includes Ulrich Tukur, Barbara Philipp, Nadine Dubois, and Robert Gwisdek, with coverage also recalling a pre-broadcast dispute tied to a reported guest role for Rammstein keyboardist Christian "Flake" Lorenz.
