France is about to elect a president of North African descent, unless it all falls apart. Rebecca Zlotowski revisits the political thriller genre while playing with France’s distinctive identity. A shock, as great as The Wire in its own time.

This brilliant original creation by Canal+ sets itself apart from French TV production with its nuanced representations, its wonderfully well-developed characters and its unique narrative structure. It addresses a major current issue while steering away from clichés, and keeps us on our toes from beginning to end. It announces what could happen later by showing rather than saying, while letting us hope for another outcome.
