February 1927. The funeral of Marcel Péricourt, the most powerful banker in Paris. His daughter Madeleine must take the helm of the financial empire of which she is the heiress. But she has a son, Paul, who with an unexpected and tragic gesture will place her on the path to ruin.

VIBE

A sweeping, melancholic drama about the weight of legacy and the corrosive nature of power. It feels like a grand, tragic opera unfolding in opulent, yet suffocating, Parisian salons. A slow-burn descent into ruin.
