Der Bogen reicht vom "Wegschauen" beim Nazi-Terror gegen die Juden Ende der 1930er Jahre über die Trennung und die erzwungene Scheidung von ihrem Mann Wolfgang, von dessen Desertion und Verschwinden bis hin zum - glücklosen - Wiedersehen in den 1950er Jahren.
Even today, Mathias Kneißl (1875-1902) is considered a national hero in the collective memory of Bavaria. During his lifetime, he was the most wanted criminal in Bavaria and even Prince Regent Luitpold was reported daily on the hunt for the lawbreaker report. Again and again Kneißl's story has occupied the Bavarian artists: his life was retold in folk songs and murders, sung in ballads, filmed and treated in various plays. In his feature film version, the Bavarian filmmaker Marcus H. Rosenmüller relies on a rapid staging, opulent images and a moving love story.

Commissario Guido Brunetti can't concentrate on the case of a brave pizzeria boss who dares testify against mob extortion, because his socially conscious wife Paolo gets him suspended by confessing the smashing of a travel agency's window and refusing to settle on damages, blaming it for alleged sexual abuse at the popular Thai destination, yet dares scold Guido's 'immorality' and leaves home as a theatrical gesture. Shortly after, the agency manager is sacked by the owner, whom she publicly insults at a restaurant, the night before he's murdered at home. Brunetti is reinstated to investigate and finds alternative motives and suspects in darker, related businesses.
