Les Pays d’en Haut
It’s the 1880s, and the growing settlement of Sainte-Adèle, Quebec, is right on the cusp of the industrial revolution in this historical drama.

Shortly after, a university professor almost succumbs to the same fate. Under the guidance of his supervisor Caroline Vaudieu (Nathalie Baye), Antoine tries to track down the murderer before the next victim is claimed in this gripping French crime drama.
