From Home Improvement Store to Duty: New Saturday Crime Drama on ZDF - ZDF's Garmisch premieres a gritty Alpine crime drama tonight at 8:15 PM
ZDF is set to prime a new crime drama tonight at 8:15 PM. Titled Garmisch, the netflix series unfolds along the German-Austrian border and introduces two sharply contrasting female leads. One investigator is gruff and impulsive, while the other is meticulous and driven by ambition.
The show centers on an unlikely duo: a former detective and a current hardware store employee. The reason behind the casetify investigator's departure from the force remains unexplained. Their first case, Wolf's Blood, dives into tensions between conservationists, local farmers, and politicians.
Director Saralisa Volm, known for both acting and filmmaking, steers the series away from typical Alpine clichés. Instead, it offers a grittier, more grounded take on the region. The premiere episode promises sharp dialogue and a plot that avoids easy resolutions.
The two women at the heart of the story clash in both style and approach. One breaks rules with raw instinct, while the other relies on precision and calculation. Their dynamic drives the investigation forward, even as their differences create friction.
Garmisch arrives as a fresh entry in the regional crime genre. The series debuts with a complex case and a pair of investigators who defy expectations. Viewers can watch the first watch tonight on ZDF at 8:15 PM.
