The original award-winning drama
The dead have returned. But this is a homecoming like no other.
The Returned is a stylish take on the supernatural genre that combines taut mystery with rich character-led drama. Superb French drama to follow the trail blazed by Braquo and Spiral.
In an idyllic French mountain town, a seemingly random collection of people find themselves in a state of confusion as they attempt to return to their homes. What they do not yet know is that they have been dead for several years, and no one is expecting them back. As they struggle to reintegrate with their families and past lovers, buried secrets emerge and new mysteries develop as they grapple with a miraculous and sinister new reality. But it seems they are not the only ones to have returned from the dead. Their arrival coincides with a series of gruesome murders which bear a chilling resemblance to the work of a serial killer from the past.
