Gregory

A chilling true story, an unsolved case, and only 5 episodes to tell it: if you want to stay in the news business, in France this time, you should really take a look at Gregory. One of the most infamous murders in our recent history, namely the assassination of little Grégory Villemin, in 1984, in the Vosges, is thus dissected in this sometimes sensationalist documentary mini-series, but which still manages to handle this sordid story brilliantly. A legal, media and police affair which still remains unresolved, more than 40 years later, and whose consequences have left indelible traces in French society.
