The Bayonne Beast – 6 Part French Miniseries – Online August 7, 2022
A six-part crime drama is behind “The Bayonne Beast”: The free TV premiere of the French mini-series revolves around two cases of missing girls. In the small French town of Bayonne, little Charlotte first disappears without a trace during a storm of the century. Police officer Pierre Castaing, who is in charge of the investigation, has to release his main suspect, Serge Fouquet, for lack of evidence. Instead, the young rebel Tony Andreï comes under suspicion. For Castaing, however, it is clear that Fouquet is the kidnapper. His obsession with convicting him puts his life and that of his wife and their two daughters, Sarah and Lilas, to the test. Years later, Sarah Castaing, who now works as a police officer in Bordeaux herself, is confronted with the disappearance of another girl. Eleven-year-old Jade Munoz climbed into a white van. Since then there has been no trace of her. There seem to be parallels to the case of Charlotte Meyer, who disappeared years ago, and Sarah also suspects Fouquet, with whom she connects a dark history in Bayonne. Both the detective and her father, police officer Pierre Castaing (Olivier Marchal, “The Crimson Rivers”), are confronted with their own past. “The Beast of Bayonne” accompanies the investigations, which extend over two time levels – can be seen from Sunday, August 7, 2022, 10:15 p.m., in double episodes on ZDF and following the TV broadcast for four weeks in the ZDFmediathek.
