Overview

• TF1 began airing the eight-episode drama on September 29 at 21:10, with the first two episodes available on TF1 and TF1+.
• Set in 1899 Montmartre, the series blends a family quest with a police investigation against the backdrop of Parisian cabarets.
• Alice Dufour plays Céleste, a cancan dancer who becomes Paris’s first effeuilleuse to finance a detective’s search tied to her fractured family history.
• Produced over roughly three years by the Je te promets team, the show draws on historical consulting, period technologies, and figures such as Sarah Bernhardt and Toulouse-Lautrec.
• Early response highlights strong audience interest and sharp critical pushback over nude scenes, with praise for the choreography, production values, and Dufour’s dance-honed performance.
