Le secret de la cascade

There is a type of crime movie or TV series that is slow, pastoral and cozy to watch - OK, cozy murder in a very liberal way to describe that. A great example of that sub-genre is the Midsomer Murders series. The Waterfall Murder is also one of them movies. Interesting, absorbing, with all kinds of twists that allows you to experience rural Austria through the eyes of Agatha Christie ... we'll, sort of. The background scenery is also gorgeous since it is filmed in the Austrian alps region. The actors and actresses do a good job and the script is linear and quite easy to follow. Very nice movie indeed and may I say, easy to watch cuddling with your other half and a glass of good wine during a cold winter night . 7/10.

In the united states, the waterfall murder. In austria, it's landkrimi drachenjungfrau, which means something like "crime..dragon maiden". The two titles are so different from each other. When a girl's body is found at the bottom of the waterfall, the coppers must figure out if it's a murder or a suicide. Plenty of suspects. Most of them have alibis. The investigator even knows one of the suspects, and they did not get along as kids. We follow along as the inspector works his way through the suspects. It's a beautiful mountain setting. And the maiden in the title is what the locals sometime hear singing... in the wind. Directed by catalina molina. She has won a bunch of film fest awards. Not sure why this isn't more well known.
