The Confidante releases its trailer and introduces us to a survivor who has a lot to hide and we’re hooked! Ready to know more?
Here we go!
Inspired by true events, this psychological thriller follows Christelle “Chris” Blandin, a rock music-obsessed Parisian, who, after witnessing the harrowing November 13, 2015 terrorist attacks, quickly latches onto a community of survivors. Claiming that her best friend Vincent was one of dozens critically injured at the Bataclan Theatre, Chris becomes an indispensable resource for the group, working her way into a prominent role in a survivors’ association.
Though her commitment seems relentless, discrepancies begin to pepper her story – raising serious doubts among the true victims of the tragedy. A thought-provoking four-part limited series, The Confidante questions the very nature of truth… and the web of lies left in one woman’s wake.
In the trailer we see how Chris ended up involved in one of the most terrible nights that Paris has experienced in recent years. However, while a night of terror is an effort for everyone, for her it becomes an opportunity. She begins to be a prominent figure in the survivors’ association and helps them move forward in what they want to achieve, but will that be enough when the truth about her begins to come to light?
The cast of this psychological thriller includes Laure Calamy, Arieh Worthalter, Annabelle Lengronne, Alexis Manenti, Ava Baya and Anne Benoît. Directed by Just Philippot, written by Fanny Burdino, Jean-Baptiste Delafon, Samuel Doux and Alexandre Kauffmann, adapted from Alexandre Kauffmann’s book La Mythomane du Bataclan, produced by Studiofact Stories (Roxane Rouas-Rafowicz, Jacques Aragones, Ivan Sadik, Basile Lemaire) with June Films (Julie Billy, Naomi Denamur).
The Confidante debuts Friday, October 11 exclusively on Max.
