On September 21, 2001, ten days after the New York attacks, the explosion of the AZF factory in Toulouse left 31 dead, thousands of injured, tens of thousands of victims… 20 years after the explosion which killed her father, a young woman, returns to the scene of the disaster, to face her trauma. She discovers victims torn apart in a war of memories. Upset, the young woman embarks on a historical investigation. This series in four episodes, built like an intimate thriller, questions contemporary issues, those of the 21st century: the place of industry in urban areas (Lubrizol, Beirut, etc.), respect for the environment and the living environment , safety at work, the search for the truth (fake news, conspiracy…).
