Synopsis:

The producers of Inspector Montalbano have decided to go back in time, using some of Andrea Camilleris earlier book, to paint a picture of Montalbano in his younger days. The results are splendid and even though Luca Zingaretti was a definitive older Montalbano, Michele Riondino is totally charming as the younger inspector. You will also meet familiar characters like Catarella, Fazio and Mimi Augello in their youth. The humour, the food and the instinctive detection skills are all on display here. A real treat for fans of this superb Sicilian crime fiction.
Six all new feature films:
01. The First Inquiry
02. New Years Eve
03. Back to the Roots
04. Mortally Wounded
05. Third Secret
06. Seven Mondays

Inspector Montalbano is that rare beast, a TV series that actually improves incrementally each time new films are produced. At this stage, the producers have more or less caught up with the novels that Andrea Camilleri had written, so it seemed there would be a break for Montalbano. But lo and behold, someone had the idea to travel backwards, to look at the stories written by Camilleri that pre-date the Inspector Montalbano series we know and love. The results are here for all to see and enjoy in YOUNG MONTALBANO, the first set of six feature films created by Palomar/RAI, and starring Michele Riondino. All of the films are based on books by Andrea Camilleri, and are directed by Gianluca Maria Taverelli.
