About the title
A series of mysterious murders takes place in Italy's picturesque wine-growing countryside. Detective Stucky investigates the dark secrets of this "wine paradise," where two forces collide — the thirst for profit and respect for the land. An Italian neo-noir set against the backdrop of beautiful vineyard landscapes and the streets of an old town, "The Venetian Detective" is based on Fulvio Ervas's novel "As Long as There's Prosecco, There's Hope." The dark side of idyllic rural Italy is exposed by the character played by Giuseppe Battiston ("Perfect Strangers").
