Netflix has been dropping some serious crime drama and thrillers this year, notably the Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story and the recently released, The Watcher.
Wild is the Wind is a story of two cops who find themselves amidst corruption in the system and prejudice. While racial tensions and corruption is rampant in a small, segregated town, police finds a body of a young girl who was brutally murdered.
The brief footage opens with a remark about a socially segregated small town by one of the two cops that the place can never outgrow the inherent hate that it carries for others. The duo is seen observing the land in front of them, standing near a cliff.
The scene than changes to the crime scene where a young Afrikaans girl gets brutally murdered by an unknown killer and sparking an environment of terror. The case gets high priority as the victim is revealed to have a connection with the deputy, which makes it a must-solve inter-department case.
Currently, the streamer has not announced a release date for the show.
