Filming begins this Thursday in the metropolis under the direction of director Pascal L’Heureux, who has made a name for himself with directing series such as “The Bombs” and “Discussions with My Parents”.
In this new proposal, we are interested in investigators Laurence (Alice Moreault) and Geneviève (Julie Le Breton), whose journey takes a dramatic turn during a police operation. Laurence shoots and shoots a witness who has just given her an important revelation about the disappearance of her father, a former investigator. The Office of Independent Investigations must determine whether the young police officer committed murder or acted in self-defense, it said in a statement Thursday.
The first season of A Criminal Affair, starring Celine Bonnier, Louis-Philippe Dandenault and Raymond Bouchard, received five Gemini nominations last September: Best Drama Series, Best Text: Drama Series, Best Female Lead: Drama Series (Céline Bonnier), Best Male Supporting Actor : Drama Series (Raymond Bouchard) and Best Make-Up/Hairstyle: Feature Film.
Produced by Sovimage Productions in collaboration with Bell Media, the eight new episodes of A Criminal Affair are once again the result of the imagination of author Joanne Arseneau, known among others for her screenwriting work for the series Faits divers, Le clan and 19-2.
“Once again this year, Joanne Arseneau takes us into the heart of a poignant story that illuminates the painful crossroads of women trying to break free from their past. “Led by the incredible sensitivity of director Pascal L’Heureux, season two of A Criminal Affair can only move with its truth-infused characters and their twisted paths to justice,” said producer Sophie Deschênes (19-2, “Before the crash”, The Bomben).
