Bring home the Vidocq prize (or almost).

This Monday, in Lille, this trophy rewarding the best French detective series of the past year was awarded, as part of the Series Mania festival, to the

Invisibles

.

The six episodes of the first season were shot in Lille and in other towns in Hauts-de-France such as Lambersart, Roubaix, Seclin or Tourcoing.

Les Invisibles

recounts the investigations of a brigade investigating unidentified corpses.

Team members have seven days to put names to these bodies and piece together their respective stories.

Beyond this period, if they remain anonymous, the remains will end up in the indigent square: in other words, in the common grave.

Broadcast in September on France 2, this mini-series was followed on average by 3.94 million viewers.

A success that earned him to be renewed for a second season.

A prize created by the prefect of Hauts-de-France
