This is the usual French TV series, complete with histrionics, a lot of shouting, flowery language, and philosophical musings. It shows the failings of a judicial system, the working of which are particular to France. The basis for the accusations is a lie due to family dysfunction, which spirals out of control, but takes root in an apparently biased system of expert witnesses, courts and judges. The series itself is not great, but set in Nice where the scenery is visually stunning.
Auteuil carries the role of the lead character well, assuming that the character is meant to be one who looks perpetually confused and bewildered by the surrounding events.
