The Red Shadows

In 1993, five year old Clara Garnier is kidnapped. The ransom exchange ends in a bloodbath and the child vanishes. 25 years later, Clara’s older sister Aurore, a police officer, finds proof that her sister is living under another identity in Italy. Against her family’ wishes, she persuades Clara to come back to help her discover the truth behind the kidnapping. But Clara’s return unravels family secrets and triggers a series of violent events.

Directed by Manon Dillys, Nicolas Douay, Sébastien Le Délézir, The Red Shadows leans on a strong ensemble — Nadia Farès, Manon Azem, Lannick Gautry — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2019.
