Summer of 36(2026)

Set on the Côte d'Azur in the summer of 1936, the series plants a murder inside a luxury hotel at the exact moment France's new paid-holiday laws send working-class vacationers onto beaches previously reserved for the wealthy. That collision is not backdrop; it is the engine of every scene, shaping who suspects whom and who gets believed.

Four women, separated by money and social position, each move through the investigation from a different angle, and their competing interests keep the case from resolving cleanly into hero and villain. The true-crime grounding means the consequences stay concrete: reputations, livelihoods, and freedom are all genuinely at risk, not just dramatic currency.
