Samber (2023)

Late 80's in Northern France, women are being sexually assaulted along the same road by the Samber river - with attacks taking place early mornings and in a similar style. The police fail to get to grips with the extent of these assaults or make a connection between the cases. The justice system is overwhelmed by the accumulating cases. It will take 30 years to catch a man, who never stopped attacking women and is responsible for at least 54 cases of rape or sexual assault. The progression of the investigation is recounted, along with its repercussions from the 80's through to 2018 and the beginning of the #metoo era.
