What happens

The Last Prosecco (Italian: Finché c'è prosecco c'è speranza, lit. 'As Long as There's Prosecco, There's Hope') is a 2017 Italian giallo comedy film co-written and directed by Antonio Padovan in his first feature film, based on the 2010 Italian novel Finché c'è prosecco c'è speranza by co-screenwriter Fulvio Ervas. Set mainly in the Province of Treviso, the area of the Veneto region where Prosecco grapes are grown, the film follows an awkward police inspector (Giuseppe Battiston) assigned to investigate a bizarre suicide followed swiftly by two murders. The film spotlights the Prosecco-making world while incorporating "a strong environmental message". The film has "captivated audiences through the expression of the magic and charm" of a "unique region of Italy." (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
