The Storyline at the top of the description for this series (as of when I'm writing this review in February 2023) is really grossly misleading. It currently says:
"Judge Claire Delval discovers that her father, Simon Delval, is involved in the corruption case she has been investigating for years. Forced to resign, his place in the Francophone Liberal Party is coveted by the discreet Mark Van Dyck."
It's not that it's wrong, it's that it really isn't what the story is about.
It's about an investigation into a brutal gang rape with that rape being shown mid way through the first episode in considerable detail.
The investigation judge, Claire Delval takes it upon herself to investigate the rape after being forced to step down from the corruption case because of her father's involvement.
Meanwhile, the ambitious politicial, Mark VAn Dyck, is after Simon Delval's job after he resigns because of the corruption case. However, the key backdrop to this is that Van Dyck witnessed the rape in the carpark, felt he couldn't intervene because it was a gang rape and it would have been him against 7 or so young men, so instead he filmed it and anonymously posts the film on the internet.
The series follows Duval's investigation into the rape in parallel with Van Dyck trying to pursue his political ambitions while not being exposed as the individual who saw the rape but did nothing.
Because of the violence in the first episode (i.e. The rape scene) and a brutal attack at the end of episode 2, we only watched the first two episodes before deciding it wasn't for us. If the "Storyline" at the top of the IMDB page had been accurate, we would have not even bothered starting it as it's not our kind of series.
We did chase down a description of the series elsewhere on the internet and confirmed it really is entirely about the rape and little to do with the corruption story and that's why we gave up.
It might appeal to others but before starting to view it, please be aware of what the story is actually about and ignore the current "Storyline" description which doesn't accurately portray the events in the series.
