It features two policewomen: Major Raphaëlle Coste (addressed as "Commander"), an impulsive police detective played by Lola Dewaere, and autistic archivist Astrid Nielsen, played by Sara Mortensen.
Astrid et Raphaëlle: Created by Laurent Burtin, Alexandre de Seguins. With Sara Mortensen, Lola Dewaere, Benoît Michel, Jean-Louis Garçon. Autistic archivist Astrid Nielsen and impulsive inspector Raphaëlle Coste work together to solve crimes in and around Paris.
The storyline of Astrid is based on the novel “Les enquêtes d’Astrid et Raphaëlle” by Sophie Bassignac and Marie Deshaires, who also created the show. The show follows the unlikely partnership between Raphaëlle and Astrid, who work together to solve crimes in Paris.
While investigating the murder of a homeless man, Astrid finds herself face to face with the very criminal her father was pursuing when he was murdered a few years ago. An infamous green diamond is being exhibited in Paris.
Astrid works in the quiet solitude of the police archives. Her incredible memory and love of puzzles leads her to make connections no one else sees, and Raphaelle is quick to embrace her brilliance. From Walter Presents, in French with English subtitles.
The character of Astrid is beautifully brought to life by Sara Mortensen. Astrid is sheltered, tender, and earnest. You can’t help but love her. It’s precisely her ability to see the world differently from the rest of us that makes her such an asset to Raphaëlle.
Astrid et Raphaëlle returns for Season 7, as the much-loved French cozy crime series continues to win fans worldwide with its clever cases and strong leads.
