A retired crime journalist gets involved in the latest investigation of her son, a police commander.
The bottom line: The Chantal Ladesou Mysteries.
Le fil d'Ariane is a 2 x 52-minute crime-comedy pilot for a potential series created for TF1 by Clara Bourreau and Cécile Lugiez (both worked on Sam) and starring the popular comedian, actress and television/radio personality Chantal Ladesou. Written by Clara Bourreau, Cécile Lugiez and Charlène Galan (Profilage), it premiered on Belgian broadcaster La Une this month. Chantal Ladesou is Ariane Legrand,
a crime journalist who behaves like a diva
though her glory days are behind her. She loses the murder of a female influencer in Sète to a young colleague and she's pushed into retirement by her editor-in-chief.
Ariane Legrand doesn't take it well but the police detective in charge of the case in Sète happens to be her son, Commander Jacques Vidal.
No matter that she hasn't seen him and her grandchildren for a long
time, Ariane decides to move in with them in order to investigate on the
death of the influencer and get her job back. Le fil d'Ariane is essentially Chantal Ladesou as her public persona in an episode of Simon Coleman, the crime-comedy from France 2
where a cop takes care of his sister's three children. The humour ranges from laborious to embarassing. Someone probably thought that the voice-over by the main character was a good idea but it's not.
Comedian and actor Florent Peyre plays Jacques. Pierre Deny (Demain nous appartient) appears as Jean-François. Appoline Kircher is played by Clémence Ansault, Chantal Ladesou's daughter. Also with Lina Ksantini (Camille Vidal), Léni Plouviez Bascop (Noé Vidal), singer and actress Philypa Phoenix (Balthazar) as Capucine Cissé, Tim Rousseau (Amaury Mercier), Alka Balbir (Antonia), etc. Produced by Elephant Story with TF1. Co-produced by AT-Production and RTBF (Télévision belge). Produced with the participation of RTS (Radio Télévision Suisse). Gaëlle Cholet, Charlotte Denaud and Guillaume Renouil are the producers. Music composed by Arno Alyvan. Cinematography by Philippe Lardon. Editing by Thierry Brunello. Distributed by Newen Connect, Le fil d'Ariane was filmed last june. Directed by Jason Roffé (Tandem).
