Season overview
In the fourth season of the German satirical crime comedy Homicide Hills, the narrative shifts as Marie Gabler assumes command of the police station located in the tranquil village of Hengasch, situated within the Liebernich district. Tasked with managing the disorganized criminal activity occurring between the Lower Rhine and the slate mountains, Gabler faces immediate challenges in establishing her authority. Her arrival and leadership style are met with significant resistance from her local colleagues, specifically police superintendent Heino Fuß and trainee inspector Jennifer Dickel. Furthermore, Gabler must navigate the complex social dynamics of the village, where Heike Schäffer exerts influence as the secret ruler of the community. The season continues to explore the comedic friction inherent in the series, focusing on the cultural and professional clashes between the expectations of law enforcement and the realities of provincial life in the Eifel mountains. As Gabler attempts to address local crime, the series maintains its focus on the interplay between the new station leadership and the established, often skeptical, village figures who have long defined the social order of Hengasch.
