LatestCeline and Alex grow closer to the killer; the Jolicoeurs suspect a family member; everyone's certainties are collapsing.
Fermont: A remote mining colony in the endless frozen hell that is Canada's far North. The body of a young exotic dancer is found and the Quebec City police sends one of their toughest, most experienced detectives to investigate. Céline sure is always up for a challenge. Being cooped up in the massive structure that is the colony – the inhabitants simply call it “The Wall” – soon presents her with some challenges that exceed her investigative efforts.
Acting
Isabel Richer's exhausted, magnificent performance as Céline.
Production
The Wall itself—a brutalist character you can't escape.
Writing
Quebecois dialogue that feels lived-in, not translated.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Fermont is a real company town built around an iron ore mine; the show films in the actual structure, making its claustrophobia uncomfortably authentic.
The real Wall houses roughly 200 permanent residents who watched their home become a murder set; local reception was reportedly mixed.
