The investigations carried out by Imma Tataranni (Vanessa Scalera), a character freely inspired by Mariolina Venezia’s novels, take her around the region of Basilicata and its surroundings. Matera and its ancient Sassi are the central setting for every episode: the law court which houses her office is actually the 18th century Palazzo dell’Annunziata in piazza Vittorio Veneto, the exterior shots of her home are in via San Biagio.
Season I featured Metaponto, a hamlet in Bernalda on the Ionian coast with a very ancient history: Imma is on holiday, spending time on the beach and wandering the temples of the archaeological area, but is unable to stop thinking about a case she is following.
A work trip to Rome offers the opportunity to show off some of the beauty spots in the Eternal City: Imma on a scooter with her trusty colleague Calogiuri is reminiscent of a clumsy Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday, as she admires the Colosseum and the city’s thousand-year-old beauty, later heading to Cinecittà Studios, where she questions an aspiring actress.
