Polizeiruf 110: Böse geboren – A Dive into Inherited Evil
Polizeiruf 110: Böse geboren (“Born Evil”) is a particularly chilling episode of the long-running German crime drama, Polizeiruf 110. Aired in 2016 and featuring the Magdeburg team of Hauptkommissarin Doreen Brasch (Claudia Michelsen) and Kommissar Dirk Köhler (Matthias Matschke), the episode delves into the complex and disturbing question of whether evil can be inherited, or if environmental factors are solely to blame for shaping a criminal’s path.
The central case involves the brutal murder of a young woman. The prime suspect quickly becomes Maik Bollow, a quiet and seemingly ordinary man who lives a withdrawn life. However, as Brasch and Köhler investigate, they uncover a horrifying family history. Bollow’s father was a notorious serial killer who terrorized the region decades earlier. The revelation raises uncomfortable questions: Is Maik simply a product of his genes? Is he destined to repeat his father’s crimes, or is he a victim of his family’s dark legacy, forever tainted by his father’s monstrous acts?
Böse geboren doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, it presents a nuanced and unsettling exploration of nature versus nurture. The investigation is less about a thrilling chase and more about unraveling the psychological complexities of Maik Bollow. The episode meticulously portrays his struggle against what he believes to be a pre-determined fate. He actively tries to avoid the darkness that seems to emanate from his family history, but the weight of his father’s sins bears down on him constantly.
Claudia Michelsen’s portrayal of Doreen Brasch is particularly compelling. She approaches the case with a mixture of professional detachment and human empathy. While she is driven to uncover the truth and bring the perpetrator to justice, she also recognizes the potential tragedy of Maik’s situation. She grapples with the ethical implications of holding him accountable for actions potentially influenced by factors beyond his control.
The episode’s strength lies in its willingness to confront uncomfortable truths about the human capacity for evil. It forces viewers to consider the impact of genetics, upbringing, and societal prejudice on individual behavior. The dark and somber atmosphere, coupled with the complex character study of Maik Bollow, makes Polizeiruf 110: Böse geboren a thought-provoking and disturbing entry in the series. It leaves a lasting impression, prompting viewers to question the very nature of good and evil and the extent to which we are truly masters of our own destiny.
