Our take
Born during the 2018 edition of Series Mania, the series brings us on a journey in the footsteps of a serial killer in the beautifully filmed, cold landscapes of the French-Swiss border. In this mysterious Hitchcockian story, a clever twist freshens up the detective story genre, offering a wonderful role for the talent of Marina Hands. With her, Sofiane Zermani (aka Fianso the rapper), is really a man of all trades, as he has already proven in Les Sauvages and Alger Confidentiel.
