Inspector Rex

Together with Commissioner Max Steiner, Inspector Felix Burger, and their boss Major Evelyn Leitner, German Shepherd Rex investigates cases in the Vienna homicide division, supported by pathologist Dr. Tom Wippler. For Max, Rex is more than just a four-legged colleague. He also shares his home with the German Shepherd. The experienced investigator is single and still suffering from his separation from his ex-wife Sarah. But things are about to get lively again when Max's adult daughter Anna returns from South America. And where the daughter is, the mother is never far away.

A wealthy industrialist wants to buy little Rex, but the Antonius family, who bred him, turn him down. So, without further ado, he has the puppy kidnapped. But Rex, of course, isn't stupid and manages to escape his kidnappers. With his last ounce of strength, he drags himself to Joe Felsner's farm and befriends his grandson, Benny.

Stockinger is an Austrian-made police television drama, with fourteen 45-minute episodes first aired from 1996 to 1997. The series is a spin-off from the popular Austrian television drama Inspector Rex, and focuses on Ernst Stockinger, one of the original members of the Homicide division or Mordkommission in German. Stockinger leaves the series to return to Salzburg where his wife has inherited a dental practice from her late father . He is appointed a Bezirksinspektor at the Landes Gendarmerie, sharing an office with District Inspector Antonella Simoni. Unlike the members of the team in 'Rex', who appear to be self-directed and are seldom seen to answer to senior management, Stockinger reports to Dr Brunner, a philosophising burecratic senior police inspector. Stockinger is portrayed as a clumsy, almost Inspector Clouseau-like character, driving a clapped-out 1973 VW Variant, but single-minded when following up clues.

Three families struggle to find their true selves and their soulmates in a world full of expectations, pressure and obstacles. Inspired by real events, this film shows how they pursue their dreams and potential without losing themselves.
