Machine is a new drama series created by Thomas Bidegain and Fred Grivois, exploring the links between politics, labor activism and martial arts. Margot Bancilhon, best known for her roles in Five and Bac Nord, Guillaume Labbé and JoeyStarr play the lead roles, and should deliver powerful, nuanced performances.

A former Special Forces operative, trained in martial arts and weapons handling, Machine learns to fight alongside the workers, moving from solitary combat to one of solidarity.

Its unique blend ofpolitical intrigue and kung fu creates an intriguing and original contrast, appealing to fans of complex stories and nuanced characters. The combination of labor struggle and martial arts offers a fresh, refreshing and captivating perspective.
