It’s the end of the tourist season at Les Cimes, a small ski resort in the Swiss-Alps. Vacationers are leaving, the snow is melting, and a woman’s body is found lying in broad daylight. Her bizarrely staged, ritualized murder is clearly the work of a serial killer working both sides of the Franco-Swiss border. Actor Marina Hands, of the Comédie-Française, and Sofiane Zermani (A.K.A. French-Algerian rap artist Fianso) lead a talented cast in the emotionally complex, continually surprising detective series Off Season. As two police captains — one Swiss, the other French — they join forces to investigate the macabre crime. But the unconditional love of one mother, willing to do whatever it takes to protect her sole remaining child, throws a monkey wrench into their investigation.
