THIS IS NOT A MURDER MYSTERY

This Is Not A Murder Mystery gives the classic whodunnit a surreal twist, bringing René Magritte, Salvador Dalí, and their peers into a visually stunning, genre-bending murder mystery.

Set in the 1930s, the series follows a young Magritte (Pierre Gervais) as he arrives at an opulent English estate for a private art exhibition hosted by the flamboyant Lord James. What begins as an extravagant gathering quickly turns dark when Magritte wakes up beside the body of performance artist Sheila Legge (Lauren Versnick). As more bodies fall, Scotland Yard’s DCI Thistlethwaite (Stephen Tompkinson) and DC Quant (Donna Banya) are called in to investigate.

Alongside Magritte, the guest list includes Salvador Dalí (Iñaki Mur), Lee Miller (Florence Hall), Man Ray (Frank Bourke), Max Ernst (Mike Hoffmann), and Gala Dalí (Regina Bikkinina), each bringing their own artistic chaos to the intrigue. The series embraces surrealism not just in its characters but in its striking visuals, playful narrative, and heightened performances.

Reality and art blur in this mind-bending murder mystery—where nothing is quite what it seems.

PARIS HAS FALLEN

Directed by Oded Ruskin, Hans Herbots

PARIS HAS FALLEN

PARIS HAS FALLEN, a Canal+ Creation originale, rolls off muscular IP, channelling the high-octane action thriller propulsion of the “Has Fallen” film series, whose star Gerard Butler serves as executive producer. The three movies to date – Antoine Fuqua’s “Olympus Has Fallen” (2013), Babak Najafi’s “London Has Fallen” (2016) and Ric Roman Waugh’s “Angel Has Fallen” (2019) – have grossed a combined $522 million in box office, a standout result for an independent film. PARIS HAS FALLEN weighs in as a high-profile case of the continuing diaspora from film to TV.

Tewfik Jallab (“Spiral,” “Dark Hearts”) plays Vincent Taleb, a member of a security deal guarding a high-ranking politician, like Butler’s Banning in the film series. Here, the target is France’s Minister of Defence, attacked by a terror force at a high-profile event.

INTO THE NIGHT

INTO THE NIGHT is an apocalyptic science fiction thriller created by Jason George for Netflix. It is Netflix's first Belgian original series.

The first season follows a group of people whose plane is hijacked while they are on board a red-eye flight from Brussels. Terenzio, the hijacker, is an Italian NATO soldier who forces his way onto the aircraft and demands an early take-off. The handful of people in the aircraft then become some of the survivors of a deadly global event caused by exposure to sunlight. The plane heads west in an attempt to survive this catastrophe that kills all living organisms during daylight hours. The group – led by Mathieu, the pilot, and Sylvie, a passenger who was formerly a military helicopter pilot – must work together to keep the sun behind them.

In the second season, the remaining survivors secure their path to a NATO bunker in Bulgaria, where they seek refuge from the deadly rays of the Sun. Continuing their quest of survival with the military members in the bunker, they attempt to manage a burgeoning conflict and find a solution to the diminished supply of resources.
