Synopsis
Moloch (2020) is a Belgian-French crime thriller series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Arnaud Malherbe. The setting is a grim, labyrinthine industrial town on the coast. People there are catching fire — spontaneously, with no apparent accelerant and no apparent reason.
Louise is a young journalist who refuses the accident explanation. Gabriel is a psychiatrist who arrives with his own reasons to investigate. Marina Vacth and Olivier Gourmet play both of them as people who keep finding the case looping back to something older and stranger than a crime. Marc Zinga and Babetida Sadjo round out an ensemble that feels rooted in this place.
The series borrows the atmosphere from noir, the dread from horror, and the structure from procedural crime drama — but what it is really about is a town that has been hiding something long before anyone started burning. Slow, unsettling, hard to put down. Stream Moloch (2020) online on iFILM.
