NEBBIE E DELITTI in DVD
Inspector Soneri: Fog and Crimes (2 DVD)
Quattro film-tv, liberamente ispirati ai
romanzi di Valerio Varesi, ideatore del Commissario
Soneri e ambientati a Ferrara. Ogni film
della serie ha al suo centro un'indagine
del commissario Soneri, capo della Mobile
di Ferrara che, individualista nel lavoro
e non solo, opera coadivuato da una esigua
squadra di fedelissimi che costituisce un
nucleo a parte all'interno della Questura.
Le sue indagini hanno come oggetto una serie
di delitti di natura molto diversa tra loro,
ognuno dei quali nasconde un mistero inequietante,
e che portano alla luce i risvolti tragici
e amari, sorprendenti o grotteschi, di quel
mondo operoso e apparantemente tranquillo
della provincial padana, che costituisce
una delle zone pi� ricche ed evolute del
nostro Paese. Sulla scia dei grandi detective
del passato, letterario e cinematografico,
l'irrequieto Soneri non si ferma all'individuazione
di un colpevole. E` come se attorno alla
figura dell'assassino si addensasse un intreccio
di moventi diversi, di corresponsabilit�
diffuse, come se il delitto fosse il frutto
marcio di un ambiente nel quale il tempo
ha sediment risentimenti, ingiustizie mai
riparate e desideri di vendetta.

Inspector Soneri: Fog and Crimes
Set in Ferrara, deep in the heart of
the
Po Valley, Inspector Soneri: Fog +
Crimes
is a gritty series of crime films that
originate
from the pen of Valerio Varesi. It
comes
as no surprise to detective fiction
fans
that Soneri is a little world weary,
a little
dishevelled, but very indicative of
his region.
We've been spoilt with the sunshine
of Sicily
in the Montalbano series, Soneri works
in
the darker, danker nooks and crannies
of
Northern Italy.
This DVD set features the first 4 films directed
by Riccardo Donna. Expect a level of quality
on par with Montalbano in this first class
series. Synopses from the Vol 1 films:
Trying to Forget. (Bersaglio, L'Oblio)
An avenger takes on a band of drug pushers,
seemingly driven by a thirst for justice.
In reality, the man is a crooked former police
inspector. Following the avenger's death,
Inspector Soneri has the job of discovering
what made this respected officer change sides.
During the investigation, Soneri finds himself
battling with Angela, who is defending one
of the suspects. This leads in turn, to a
fatal professional embarrassment.
The Mystery Film Club (Il Cineclub del Mistero)
A woman is killed in a movie theatre. Another
works her way into Angela's life, convincing
her to attend a series of decidedly new age
courses. And so Inspector Soneri finds himself
facing an all female case, filled with men
who are too much in love, girls who have
messy pasts, and fellow officers with time-worn
secrets. To solve the case, and save Angela's
life, Soneri must investigate the darker
side of what for him, has always been a mystery:
women.
River of Fog (Il Fiume delle Nebbie)
Two elderly brothers die in a mysterious
fashion leading Inspector Soneri to sift
through the dust of half a century of history.
The truth is rooted in atrocities committed
against resistance fighters during the Second
World War. The avenger, a former resistance
fighter named Ghinelli, has let his hate
grow through years spent abroad before returning
home to settle the score. Inspector Soneri
finds the guilty party, but his questions
on the meaning of life are left unanswered.
Rooms For Rent (L'affittacamere)
Ghitta, the elderly lady who owns the Tagliavini
Pension is murdered without any apparent
motive. Inspector Soneri, who met his wife
Ada at the pension twenty years ago, remembers
Ghitta fondly. But then he discovers that
she rented rooms out to prostitutes by the
hour, and carried out illegal abortions in
the pension. The key to solving the crime
may lay in these illicit activities, but
the inspector also fears there may be a deeper
mystery with ties to his marriage, and his
most cherished sentiments.

Inspector Franco Soneri is a grizzled,
battle-weary
cop in the great detective tradition
of Colombo
and Kurt Wallander. He�s precise, measured,
and rarely seems to actually light
that damned
cigar! Based in Ferarra in Italy�s
North,
Soneri is clearly trying to make a
fresh
start in life, but his focus on work
pushes
all other priorities aside, including
his
tenuous relationship with the enchanting
Counselor Angela Cornelio. Like another
Italian
detective we know, he likes to consider
his
cases at his favourite restaurant.
The Volume
2 edition contains 6 feature films
all set
along the River Po, and all presenting
challenging
mysteries that Soneri and his team
tackle
with skill and alacrity.
Using the character adapted from the
acclaimed
books by Valerio Varesi (English translations
on sale in Australia/NZ), these excellent
detective stories present a foggy,
moody,
and at times inscrutable view of Italy.
1. THE WINTER SEA (Il Mare D'Inverno)
2. LOST CHILDREN (Bambini Perduti)
3. NO SIGN OF STOPPING (Nessuna Traccia di
Frenata)
4. A DOLL'S HOUSE (Casa di Bambola)
