Stéphane Bern is excellent in all his historical documentaries. But in this series where he wanted to test himself again as an actor, the result is just passable. Here he plays the role of a prosecutor who is uncomfortable after a disastrous conviction leading to suicide. He takes a leave to try, with his students, to exonerate his brother-in-law, accused of a crime.
The whole story is far-fetched, but can be easily watched if you don't expect a masterpiece. The second episode is a little better constructed, but still not very credible. And the inspector is still as bad as ever.
We should see 2 other episodes of the same kind. It will be time to stop this series after that, and return to History Secrets.
