Nebensaison

Off Season: A serial killer strikes on on both sides of the Franco-Swiss border. The victims have been dosed with ketamine, bound and thrown into ravines to die of their injuries and exposure. Police Captains Peiry from Switzerland and Bouanni from France are charged with tracking down the killer. Both cops have their own problems, which rise above the soap which too often infuses there dramas. Peiry's threaten to derail the investigation and she is forced to make choices which bring her future career into question. There is also some sort of conspiracy going on regarding the expansion of a local Ski Resort. Very much character driven the narrative does provide a few red herrings but the protagonists actions make sense when seen in context. Six episodes. Directed by Pierre Monnard, Co-Written by Sarah Farkas. 8/10.
