The Infiltrated, the directorial debut of Ahmed Sylla, arrives on Canal+ on Friday, August 14, 2026 at 21:06. In French cinemas February 11, 2026, this comedy—co-written by Ahmed Sylla and Daive Cohen—also stars Michèle Laroque and Kaaris.
The story follows Maxime, a particularly clumsy police officer who finds himself tasked with a high-risk undercover mission. To get close to a formidable gang led by a boss nicknamed Tonton, he must slip into the skin of Lupita. This unexpected transformation becomes the only way to integrate a group of warriors who are difficult to access.
Between unexpected situations, the pressure of the mission, and his double identity, Maxime finds himself completely immersed in a world that is beyond his control. This obstacle-strewn journey leads him into a series of complications where his cover becomes as risky as it is crucial.
The film marks Ahmed Sylla's directorial debut, already known for his work in cinema and on television. The screenplay is co-written with Daive Cohen. Sylla also stars in the lead role, alongside Michèle Laroque and Kaaris. Before its national release, L’Infiltrée was selected for the Alpe d’Huez Festival.
After its February theatrical release, L’Infiltrée continues its run with this Canal+ broadcast. The film remains built around its infiltration premise and the comical misadventures sparked by Maxime's double identity.
