EndedDocumentary showWar, History

November 11, 1918. At the end of the First World War, the surviving humanity realizes that the world of yesterday has definitively disappeared in abysses of suffering. Seven months later at Versailles, the victors make a Peace imposed on the vanquished: the Russian, German, Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires disappear, and on all the continents are born new nations, often conceived in pain. Populated by traumatized veterans, widows and orphans, exiles, deportees, the world is trying to rebuild itself after the earthquake of the Great War. Faced with the uncertainty of tomorrow, the good will incarnated by the "League of Nations" fail to recreate a peaceful world. Injured wounds get gangrenous. The Germans are humiliated. Greeks, Turks, Armenians are displaced. Hungary is cut up. America is isolating itself. The hints of independence shake the British Empire. Russia is falling into a bloody civil war. Then a period of precarious equilibrium begins, where hate, fear and rancor re-emerge from the depths of society, sowing chaos in the new world order: revolutions, crises, waves of migration and civil wars, are fertile ground for nationalist movements determined to impose their totalitarian ideology by arms. As Western populations blindly attempt to forget Charleston's frantic war, the rise of nationalism irreversibly takes the world to a new Apocalypse.

Saint-Pierre

After Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Inspector Donny "Fitz" Fitzpatrick digs too deeply into a local politician's nefarious activity, he is exiled to work in Saint-Pierre et Miquelon (the French Territory nestled in the Atlantic Ocean just off the coast of Newfoundland). Fitz's arrival disrupts the life of Deputy Chief Geneviève "Arch" Archambault, a Parisian transplant who is in Saint-Pierre for her own intriguing reasons. 

As if by fate, these two seasoned officers — with very different policing skills and approaches — are forced together to solve unique and exciting crimes. Although the islands seem like a quaint tourist destination, the idyllic façade conceals the worst kind of criminal activity which tend to wash up on its beautiful shores. At first at odds and suspicious of each other, Arch and Fitz soon discover that they are better together... a veritable crime-fighting force.
