Rocco Schiavone
Weed smoking, foulmouthed Rocco Schiavone is an offbeat Deputy Commissioner of the State Police. For disciplinary reasons he is transferred to the Alpine town of Aosta, far from his beloved Rome. The sophisticated but cranky Roman despises the mountains, the cold, and the provincial locals as much as he disdains his superiors and their petty rules. But he loves solving crimes.
Are you looking for an engaging television series that combines mystery, comedy, and drama? Look no further than "Un passo dal cielo" (One Step from Heaven), an Italian gem that has captured the hearts of viewers since its premiere in 2011. Starring the charismatic Terence Hill as Commander Pietro Thiene and Enrico Ianniello as Commissioner Vincenzo Nappi, this series takes you on a thrilling journey through the breathtaking landscapes of the Italian Alps while keeping you entertained with witty dialogue and intriguing plots.
Set in the enchanting village of Innichen (San Candido), "Un passo dal cielo" focuses on the intertwined lives of its main characters as they tackle various mysteries that unfold in their tight-knit community. The unique premise follows Pietro, a dedicated forestry officer, who partners with the newly arrived police commissioner to solve crimes ranging from murder to kidnappings, all against a backdrop of stunning alpine scenery. This setting not only enhances the visual appeal of the show but also adds depth to each episode's narrative.
In its first season alone, viewers are introduced to a plethora of captivating storylines. For instance, Episode 1 presents an intriguing murder case linked to local wildlife—specifically a wolf—which sets off an exploration into human fears and misunderstandings about nature. The chemistry between Pietro and Vincenzo evolves throughout these episodes, showcasing how their distinct personalities complement each other despite initial friction. Meanwhile, Silvia Bussolati (played by Gaia Bermani Amaral), a local veterinarian caught between her duties and budding romance with Vincenzo, adds another layer to this engaging mix.
