Assane's father is framed for the theft of an expensive diamond necklace by his employer, the wealthy and powerful Hubert Pellegrini, and hangs himself in his prison cell out of shame, leaving the teenage Assane an orphan. Twenty-five years later, inspired by a book about gentleman thiefArsène Lupin his father had given him on his birthday, Assane sets out to get revenge on the Pellegrini family, using his charisma and mastery of thievery, subterfuge, and disguise to expose Hubert's crimes.

Also, Omar Sy in a suit is the reason I'm gay Yes, I thought the same whew Does anyone know if this is related to the cartoon Lupen (watched it in a different language so spelling might be off). The storyline was similar wherein he was also a thief but would only take stuff from villains. Just curious but also that character is white so... idk Link to post Share on other sites

This character has inspired various shows, movies etc. Link to post Share on other sites

Hilly Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I’ve really enjoyed watching it. There are some flaws but it’s refreshing for a French TV show. Also I’m really proud of Omar Sy, I’m hoping this will give him more interesting projects Link to post Share on other sites

paulyyyozd Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 the first two episodes were good but they kinda lost me on the third one when omar went all jigsaw on that detective and the whole necklace conspiracy is becoming a little too convoluted. but I'll definitely watch the remaining two episodes. omar is gorgeous!
