Singapore on CANAL+: A murder shakes Singapore’s French expat community

A fresh start turns into a criminal investigation in Singapura, a CANAL+ original series created by Elsa Marpeau. The series follows Justine, a Frenchwoman who arrives in Singapore with her family, where she discovers an expatriate community whose reassuring appearances begin to crack after a murder.

Naïlia Harzoune plays Justine, who is fascinated by Élisa, played by Ariane Labed. When a crime strikes their circle, Inspector Adam Wong, played by Soji Arai, investigates a world determined to keep its secrets. India Hair and Cédric Kahn are also among the cast.

Elsa Marpeau loosely adapts her novel L’Expatriée, published by Gallimard in 2013. Danielle Arbid and Lucie Borleteau direct the six 52-minute episodes, produced by Carma Films. The series was presented at the La Rochelle Fiction Festival in 2026.
