Inspired by the literary character Arsene Lupin who is similar to Raffles: The Gentleman Thief.
Omar Sy is Assane Diop the modern day equivalent.
The first episode opens with Diop working as a janitor in the Louvre. He admires a necklace being displayed which is due to be auctioned off soon.
There are flashbacks to 1995 with a young Diop in Paris. His father has a new job as a chauffeur for a wealthy family. Only for the dad to be framed for stealing the same valuable necklace that is at display in the Louvre.
Obviously Diop is a man with a plan and he has a few patsies along for the ride.
This is an energetic and clever first episode. Tailor made if you are a fan of series like Hustle or Leverage. Sy shows a lot of charisma.
