MHz Choice brings French limited series 'Le Code' and South African series 'Grassroots' to U.S. and Canadian audiences
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The unique premise of French legal drama Le Code (Mediawan) is rooted in the idea of second chances, if those chances should come anew with each passing moment. Successful and perhaps cocky lawyer Idriss Tomas (Daniel Njo Lobé) narrowly escapes an attempted murder. He is left with an inoperable bullet in his head which can be fatal at any time. Idriss decides to use his indeterminate new lease on life by redirecting his talents and cobbling together a legal dream team with Nadia Ayad (Naidra Ayadi) and Jeanne Vanhoven (Christiane Millet) to help those who have been left behind by the justice system. The flaws of the French judicial system are explored alongside the ups and downs of the lead characters as they navigate their share of victories and defeats.
