Sometimes the best collaboration starts with an emergency.<\/p>\n

The production team of Hessischer Rundfunk was in the midst of preparations for the 1247th Tatort episode \u2013 \u201eMurot and Paradise\u201c starring Ulrich Tukur \u2013 when a promised main location unexpectedly fell through. The shooting schedule was set. The crew was booked. And suddenly the centerpiece was missing: the place where the story was supposed to take place.<\/p>\n

You called us for a new location scout.<\/p>\n

One week. Tens of thousands of square meters. Two skyscrapers.<\/h4>\n

What followed was exactly what we founded UEBERRAUM for. No long lead times, no cumbersome briefing \u2013 we knew the city, we knew the spaces, and we knew immediately where to look.<\/p>\n

Within a week we had a solution: two vacant high-rise buildings in Frankfurt with tens of thousands of square meters \u2013 empty, silent, and with an atmosphere that no studio building in the world could have delivered.<\/p>\n

The one was Union West<\/strong>, our very own pop-up space, then still in operation. A place with history, with charm, with that special feeling of departure and transience that we've always loved. The other was the disused Intercontinental Hotel<\/strong> next door \u2013 deserted corridors, empty ballrooms, an almost surreal heaviness in every room.<\/p>\n

For a crime scene involving secret banker parties, a club called \u201eParadise,\u201c and the dark promise of eternal happiness, there could have been no more fitting stage.<\/p>\n
