Max has released The Confidante trailer for the upcoming psychological thriller drama, which serves as the streamer’s first original French series. The miniseries is scheduled to make its debut on October 11.
“The drama 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,” reads the synopsis. “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, it questions the very nature of truth… and the web of lies left in one woman’s wake.”
