Témoins, Les plot

In northern France, the police encounter a horrific scene: corpses are displayed in macabre poses in a model home. Young, inexperienced detective Sandra Winckler leads the investigation. Among the brand new furniture and fake family photos, she discovers a photo of Paul Maisonneuve, a former police officer with a legendary track record. What's he got to do with the case? Winckler has no choice but to involve Maisonneuve in the case. The key to this puzzling case lies in the older cop's past, but the first clue Winckler finds only adds to the mystery.

Témoins, Les season 1

It starts off strong with the mystery setup and it looks cozy in that model home. There are beautiful shots of the surroundings and every now and then it is quite exciting, partly thanks to the calm camera operation. So the atmosphere is fine and indeed resembles Source, but certainly not as good.

About halfway through, my attention waned and as soon as Gorbier was arrested, it felt like an end. The mystery of the exhumed corpses didn't interest me that much anymore. Think those storylines are a bit too much for six episodes.

So the ending feels too stretched out. There is, however, a beautiful setting in the final episode (on the coast and on the industrial site.) Just at 3.5*

Témoins, Les season 2

Slightly less powerful than the first season, but still worth it. The main problem is the plot that gradually becomes more and more implausible. The series starts off very strong, with a pretty mysterious and sinister atmosphere, but about halfway through the season, the main character (the beautiful Marie Dompnier) makes a number of illogical decisions, after which it doesn't quite work out. Towards the end things go out a bit like a night candle. Too bad, because more people would have lived here.
