Maigret

Maigret (2022) is a French detective drama directed by Patrice Leconte — watch online on iFILM. Gérard Depardieu plays the iconic Commissioner Maigret, called in to identify a young woman found dead in a Paris square: evening gown, worn heels, no bag, no name.

The case has nothing to go on. No witnesses, no motive, no identity. Maigret moves at his own pace — less interested in procedure than in the world the victim lived in. He retraces her steps through the city until the silence around her starts to speak. Anne Loiret and Aurora Clément round out a cast that keeps the human texture grounded.

Leconte adapts Georges Simenon's understated style faithfully: this is mood and observation, not plot machinery. Depardieu brings a melancholy weight to the role that lifts the film well above a standard procedural. Stream Maigret (2022) online on iFILM.
