French broadcaster M6 has launched Mémoire Vive, a series adapted from the Turkish Persona.
Produced by Calt Studio, the French adaptation will have four 60-minute episodes. Written by Laurent Burtin, Anne-Gaëlle Daval and Hélène Lombard, this version, unlike the Turkish, will feature a female protagonist played by Clémentine Célarié.
The series follows two apparently unrelated characters: a widower Agah, who is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s after the death of his cat; and Nevra, the only female police officer in Istanbul’s homicide department. A serial killer, active in a conservative district of the city, will lead the two characters on the same path.
A second season is in preparation in Turkey produced by Ay Yapim.
