A little sorry that a wonderful fiction like Rocco Schiavone has not been promoted enough (if not at all) by the Public Service which, who knows why, spends so much money advertising certain titles while completely ignoring many others that deserve space and attention. Sorry why Rocco Schiavone not only did she get to one fifth season demonstrating how much the public loved and appreciated it, but also because at a certain point even the passage to Rai1 seemed certain, only to then remain on the network that has welcomed it since its debut in 2016, i.e. Rai2. What is striking about this marvel produced by Cross Productions, Rai Fiction and Beta Film Gmbh is the delicacy of a character that the writer Antonio Manzini he described as gruff and standoffish while retaining within him a sensitivity and a love that Marco Giallini pulled out with grace and truth, doing justice to the representation of a man who seems to have no reason to go on except for the humanity he comes into contact with through his work.
Rocco Schiavone is, in fact, a deputy commissioner under the State Police, Roman to the core, stationed in Aosta. Behind his sarcasm, his abrupt and hasty ways and an ethics that often leads him to act on the margins of legality, however, he hides a suffering that he tries to keep secret, marked both by an experience that brought many of his friends to become criminals who since the disappearance of his wife Marina (Miriam Dalmazio), the only woman he’s ever loved and who still doesn’t leave him alone because, every time Rocco Schiavone comes home after a long day at work, she seems to be waiting for him to let him vent and talk to her again. For this fifth season, starting Wednesday 5 April in prime time on Rai2, it starts from a new case to be solved after the accident that it cost him a kidney in the fourth season – he was cheated by a gunshot fired by mistake by agent D’Intino (Christian Ginepro).
Despite everything, the accident doesn’t seem to slow him down, even if it has left him with a deep sense of emptiness and loneliness that weighs heavily on his relationship with Sandra Buccellato (Valeria Solarino). Meanwhile, on Mont Blanc, at Hellbronner peak, on the border between Italy and France, a body is found by two cable car technicians. However, in order not to be involved in the murder, the two move the body to Italian territory during the night. When Rocco is called to take care of the case, he senses the anomalous movement of the body, and decides to “return” it to the French across the border. Meanwhile, the day of the traditional police-judiciary charity football match is approaching, and Rocco, as good as a good competitor, has no intention of losing. In short, there is a lot of irons in the fire, and it was just the time to welcome the fiction directed by Simone Spada back into our arms.
