Synopsis

Emprises tells the story of Raphaëlle Bayard, whose life is upended when her partner and their son vanish inexplicably without warning. What follows is a gripping, episode-by-episode quest to find them, get to the bottom of what really happened, decipher the reasons behind their disappearance and manage the public fallout of a crisis that, though deeply personal, spares no one.

At its heart, the series asks: How far would you go to find the people you love — especially when you learn they’ve embraced beliefs, values and lifestyles that completely contradict your own? 

The story weaves together today’s most urgent questions and social issues with the journey of a raw, authentic character, shaken by events beyond her control. It also shines a light on those closest to her, people from diverse backgrounds, each navigating their own path in a personal and shared struggle against what dominates, manipulates, drives or obsesses them — their fight against the forces that hold them captive.
