On Friday, October 25, the OCS chain launches its new signature series: "Twenty-five" or the moods of four friends lost and endearing on the threshold of adult life. A melancholic and funny chronicle that sounds right and moves strongly.
"The boys of today are the girls of yesterday! This is what Géraldine Nakache said when she discovered the scenario of this new series of OCS series . The actress is the
associate producer of Twenty-five .
