Buonvino - Misteri a Villa Borghese

What it’s about

Giovanni Buonvino, a deputy commissioner, is sent to head the police station inside Villa Borghese. The posting looks trivial at first, but the park soon proves to be a place where secrets, crimes, and unexplained events are woven together. Museums, monuments, and gardens in the heart of Rome become the backdrop for a series of puzzling incidents. Buonvino must work through a tangle of criminal cases and mysteries that seem to thrive in this unexpected setting.

What hooks you

Giorgio Marchesi plays Giovanni Buonvino, with Serena Iansiti as Veronica Viganò and Francesco Colella as Pierluigi Portanova. Milena Cocozza directs, and the scripts are by Salvatore De Mola and Michela Straniero, with music by Andrea Guerra.

Who it’s for

It will appeal to those who like crime stories where the setting itself becomes a character, and where an apparently peaceful place hides a web of secrets and enigmas.
