The 4 episodes are immersed in the colorful nostalgia of the seventies and the glitz of the Côte d’Azur before sinking into a darker atmosphere of power games and backroom wheeling and dealing. Michèle Laroque lends René Le Roux her lioness temperament. In the role of suspect number 1, Yannick Choirat brings out Maurice Agnelet’s contradictions.
