Un week-end de binge-watching
Faced with the profusion of series offered by the different streaming platforms, it is sometimes good to turn to short series, which do not require remembering the plot of the episode viewed two years earlier. Streaming platform Amazon Prime Video, in particular, offers an impressive range of mini-series, from gripping thrillers to offbeat comedies to gripping dramas.
« The Sticky »

It is a bold and violent satire of extreme fan culture.
« Harlan Coben’s Shelter »
