Joachim Król as Brunetti with Barbara Auer, Karl Fischer, Annett Renneberg, Patrick Diemling, Laura Syniawa, Ueli Jäggi, Dietmar Mössmer and Michael Degen.

"Murder, Venice, relationships...it's a delicious concoction in the hands of crime novelist Donna Leon. Venice provides the backdrop for the lush film versions of the bestselling novels, which features the indelible Commissario Guido Brunetti, canal boat rides instead of car chases, fine cuisine and crime investigations in one of Europe’s most beautiful locations. Joachim Król plays Guido Brunetti, a police inspector with a keen mind, razor-sharp wit, and a touch of melancholy. He strives to bring criminals to justice, but experience has taught him that countless things work against that - human frailty, corruption, and incompetence in the force being chief among them. He takes refuge from the job in the company of his loving wife Paola, a university literature professor, and two teenage children, Raffi and Chiara. Episode 1: Vendetta - First it's a high-society attorney, then a distinguished tax adviser - both murdered in the space of a few days. The attorney's wife refuses to help Brunetti’s investigation, but information comes from a source close to her. The trail leads to Signora Ceroni, who knew all three men - and who apparently knows a great deal more. Brunetti must crack a murderous human-trafficking ring run by the cream of Venetian society. Episode 2: Anonymous Venetian - When a corpse in lingerie and red high-heels turns out to be a respected and influential bank director, Brunetti suspects blackmail. As he searches for clues in the subcultures of transvestites and male prostitutes, he discovers just how many respectable citizens lead double lives."--Container.
