Eisner - 19 - Granit

Übersicht

War and peace at Christmas time in a family of mountain farmers. The fight between three brothers is about power and survival, and the motive for revenge also plays an important role. In the foreground is Erich Gufler's (Simon Schwarz) desperate attempt to save his farm, which he lost to his brother Heinz (Andreas Lust). This fate was to become a moving theme of the successful television show "Akut-Agnes", in which the popular presenter Agnes Aichinger (Muriel Baumeister) denounced grievances as the common man's advocate. But the murder of the quarry owner Helmut Pechtl (Ludwig Dornauer), who had triggered a dispute among the Gufler brothers through his machinations, turns the events upside down. The investigations are made more difficult for Chief Inspector Moritz Eisner (Harald Krassnitzer) by the explosive situation that he and his Tyrolean colleague Pfurtscheller (Alexander Mitterer) have to work practically in front of the TV team. The attractive Agnes Aichinger offers to help Moritz Eisner, but she doesn't tell a secret that almost costs her her life. When a mysterious murder attempt occurs, the Vienna special investigator is able to save her from drowning at the last second. Is there a connection to the other crime? The role of Walter Gufler (Cornelius Obonya) is quite unclear for Eisner. He had advised his brother Erich to turn on the television during the argument about house and yard in court. But it is becoming increasingly clear that he is by no means just acting unselfishly. It comes to a dramatic climax when Erich threatens to blow up the farm and is arrested. But he flees to celebrate Christmas with his family. The peaceful celebration comes to an abrupt end when Eisner makes a treacherous discovery. A few grains of grain in the snow lead him onto a hot trail...
