Ten people, five women and five men, are invited to a desert tropical island, home to a luxury hotel. They will very quickly realize that they are cut off from the rest of the world. Why have they all been drawn into this trap? Each one of them has committed a murder. But today, under the scorching sun of the island, they are going to have to pay for their crimes.

OUR TAKE Pascal Laugier, director of such grueling horror films as Martyrs, brilliantly tackles Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None. This hauntingly directed series combines the British writer’s hunt for clues with the dark horrors of the French director, in a dreamy setting. A guilty pleasure ten times over.
