1. SERIES TELEVISEES
Germinal (TV Series) – North American Premiere. Drama.
A highly ambitious, beautifully produced adaptation of Emile Zola’s great masterpiece, which takes us to a mining town in Northern France in the late 19th century and depicts the harsh working conditions, dire poverty and life-and-death dangers the coal miners face. This new reinterpretation of Zola’s monumental novel also gives prominence to several characters omitted from previous film adaptations, with a pointed emphasis on the position of women in society. Created by Julien Lilty. Written by Julien Lilty, Loïc Barrère, Chérif Saïs, Samir Oubechou, Maud Garnier, Clémence Lebatteux, Mélusine Laura Raynaud, Cheikna Sankare. Directed by David Hourrègue. Produced by Banijay Studio. With Louis Peres, Thierry Godard, Alix Poisson, Guillaume de Tonquédec, Natacha Lindinger, Sami Bouajila. Broadcast on Salto and France 2 in France. Sold by Banijay Sales.

Actor Audrey Fleurot (Spiral) stars as Morgane Alvaro, an intractable cleaning lady and single mother of three small kids, who happens to have an IQ of 160. After accidentally knocking over a stack of evidence while cleaning police offices — and outsmarting the entire detective unit — Morgane is recruited to join them.

In Treatment / En thérapie (TV Series – Season 1) – North American Premiere. Drama.
COLCOA regulars Eric Toledano & Olivier Nakache have created a loose adaptation of the original Israeli series, BeTipul, and its American HBO counterpart, also entitled In Treatment. Once again, a psychotherapist holds weekly sessions with five regular patients, along with a session with his own clinical supervisor. What makes this version noteworthy is the clever idea of setting it to begin two days after the devastating November 13, 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris, where 130 people were killed, 90 of them at the Bataclan concert hall — an event that has shaken the worlds of more than one of those patients. A veritable roster of Gallic movie stars brings those sessions to life in often riveting ways. Created by Yaël Fogiel, Laetitia Gonzalez, Hagai Levi, Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano. Written by David Elkaïm, Vincent Poymiro, Pauline Guéna, Alexandre Manneville, Nacim Mehtar, Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano. Directed by Olivier Nakache, Éric Toledano, Mathieu Vadepied, Pierre Salvadori, Nicolas Pariser. Produced by Ten Films, Les Films du Poisson, Federation Entertainment.

Paris, 1899. On the heels of the Dreyfus Affair and the scandalous death of President Félix Faure, the French Republic is reeling from rampant anarchy and the violent rise of extreme-right and anti-Semitic movements. Former police chief Louis Lepine is called out of retirement to restore order... just as a suitcase filled with female body parts is found floating down the Seine. And an ambitious young detective leaps into action, in an attempt to right a few societal wrongs.
