An investor wants to boost ski tourism in the Ore Mountains with a major project. While some people smell big business, others are concerned about nature and reject the plans in view of climate change. The lift lobbyist believes that resistance can be overcome with money. But then he is found dead in his car and the suitcase of money has disappeared. What should look like an accident calls the investigative team Robert Winkler (Kai Scheve) and Karina Szabo (Lara Mandoki) onto the scene. It will not be the only corpse in this criminal case.
"Winter Murder" can be seen today at 8.15 pm on ZDF - it is the eleventh episode of the highly rated "Erzgebirgskrimis". This time it is set in Saxony's largest alpine ski resort on the Fichtelberg in Oberwiesenthal.
However, during filming last February and March, the film crew struggled to capture snow-covered winter landscapes. While forester Saskia Bergelt (Teresa Weißbach) initially trudges through a winter forest when she finds the dead man, the area then turns gray and brown. Only on the ski slopes, where snow cannons are used to help, is it sometimes white.
