Murders in Savoie (2017)
The peaceful resort of Meribel is about to open for the ski season when a man's body is discovered at the top of a chairlift, covered in wolf skin. Clara and George Kessler, the father-and-daughter detective team leading the inquiry, are certain the crime is connected to the war being waged between livestock farmers and environmentalists ever since wolves were reintroduced into the valley. Among locals, far-fetched theories are stirring panic-could a werewolf be terrorizing the valley? For the Kesslers, the murder will uncover a secret that may not be supernatural, but is just as shocking.

Great Film overall
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
