Synopsis
Possessions (2020) is a French-Israeli drama series you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Thomas Vincent. A young French woman named Natalie, living in Israel, is found beside her husband's dead body on the night of their wedding. The Israeli police have already made up their minds.
French diplomat Karim — played by Reda Kateb — flies in to help his compatriot. The more he learns, the less certain he is. Natalie tells one story; the evidence keeps suggesting another; her family's buried past adds another layer of murk. Ariane Ascaride and Judith Chemla round out a strong ensemble. Nadia Tereshkevich plays the ambiguity with real precision — the character reads as both innocent and guilty at the same time, which is what keeps the tension running.
Filmed across Israel and France, the series uses the legal and cultural distance between the two settings as its backbone. Stream Possessions (2020) online on iFILM.
