There's a network called AMI in my country which I stumbled on recently. Its target audience is disabled people, and programs are narrated by actors for blind viewers. Cain is one of the most popular shows on AMI, and is fairly well produced. The hero is a detective in a wheelchair; the locale is Marseille, and this particular episode features Victoria Abril and Andrea Ferreol, so I wasn't going to miss it. Julien Baumgartner plays Cain, and he's pretty good at it; I can see him playing in an adaptation of a classic novel--Le rouge et le noir, maybe. The actress playing his boss is pretty hopeless, as are some of the supporting cast. But Marseille always looks great.

It is the first episode of series who I saw. And I was seduced by the clever portrait of Cain offered by Julien Baumgartner. Spiritual, ironic, acid, clever and childish, flirting and transforming in joke each moment for define, in precise manner, the truth.
More than one of many crime series, admirable for the wise manner to propose a challenge , confrontation, in fact, more than delicate.
A return to past as result of a murder. Rediscover of old events, a fake clue, the impression to know the murderer from the first scenes and the cold relations between Cain and his relatives. An unconventional love story, with tragic end and obsession to save apparences and hide the truth. And, sure, fair dose of humor.
