WASHINGTON, Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MHz Choice has upped the ante this fall with a powerhouse slate of programming aimed at delighting TV connoisseurs with the best series the world has to offer. Leading the way this September is Paris Police 1900 (Studio Canal), an eight-part historical French crime drama set in Paris at the turn of the 20th century during the tumultuous time of the Dreyfus Affair. The growing antisemitism in France in this period is woven into the backdrop of a police investigation into the murder of an unknown woman found in a suitcase floating in the Seine. The young and ambitious Inspector Antoine Jouin (Jérémie Lahuerta) ends up investigating more than a murder as he uncovers state secrets and corruption. Jouin's dramatic pursuit of justice is peppered with depictions of real events and historical figures set against the opulence of La Belle Epoque.
