Italian broadcaster Rai has acquired the new procedural drama series Weiss & Morales (4 x 90’), co-produced by RTVE, ZDF, Portocabo, Nadcon and ZDF Studios, for their Free-TV channel Rai 2.
The series revolves around the story of two investigators, Spanish Civil Guard sergeant Raúl Morales (Miguel Ángel Silvestre, particularly known for Sense8, Narcos) and German BKA agent Nina Weiss (Katia Fellin). When a crime is committed in the Canary Islands affecting the German community, the two find themselves compelled to work together. A collaboration neither enjoys, however, they'll ultimately find a way to crack the case in each episode despite their very different characters and methods of investigation.
Weiss & Morales is accompanied by an ensemble cast of Spanish and German actors that aside Katia Fellin and multi-award-winning actor Miguel Àngel Silvestre includes talents like Juanjo Puigcorbé, Mariam Hernández, Margarita Broich, Thomas Heinze, Tania Santana, Yaiza Guimaré, Saulo Trujillo, Luifer Rodríguez, and Iria Santana.
Guided by the seasoned direction of Oriol Ferrer, known for his work on 'Entrevías,' 'Estoy Vivo', backed by the executive producers Alfonso Blanco from Portocabo (‘Rapa’ ‘Hierro’) and Peter Nadermann from Nadcon (‘The Bridge’, ‘The Killing’), 'Weiss & Morales' boasts a blended Spanish and German writing team spearheaded by Nina Hernández, Carlota Dans, and Ron Markus.
