MHz Choice, a streaming service known for international dramas, has acquired the rights to the acclaimed French eco-thriller series Sea Shadows. The show has already garnered significant attention in France, emerging as one of the country’s most popular dramas.
Sea Shadows centers on oceanographer Abigail, portrayed by Fleur Geffrier (Das Boot), who returns to her hometown to probe a mysterious shipwreck. As her investigation deepens, she confronts unexpected revelations and a mysterious underwater presence. The series also features Guillaume Labbé (The Hookup Plan) and Thierry Godard (A French Village).
Originally aired on France 2 as Rivages, the series averaged an impressive 4.2 million viewers, with additional viewers accessing episodes via catch-up. France TV Distribution, responsible for international sales, has facilitated the deal with MHz Choice, which specializes in global drama programming.
