As a writer, I have to say that this series was incredibly well crafted. I knew the basic plot, but the twists that were thrown in were powerful enough to cause whiplash. Only two of the twists were a bit predictable, but other than that the story kept me guessing.......just as Adrien's editor said, "Where is this going?!" I stayed up until 4:00 am to find out the answer that question and was amazed by the ending. It is a story that will most likely stick with me for days.....not only because of the writing, but the imagery too was unforgettable too. The majority of the series is shot with a vintage look, reminiscent of the film that would've been used during the 1970s and it works well. I felt like I was transported back in time, while watching the story unfold. There are scenes of Adrien listening to a recording in an art gallery, while sitting in an art installation. The scene is absolutely mesmerizing and really intensifies the words in the recording, which are pivotal to the story. The acting was also really well done.....kudos to the actors who played Albert, Adrien, Solange, and Adrien's mother. This is definitely a must watch! Another impressive French hit!

A very clever thought provoking series with many twists and turns all the way to the end! BRAVO! I had to rewind a couple of times to get a grasp on the story, well worth the six episodes 10/10! When you get through the first episode it appears that it may a straight forward plot but this series surprised me and kept on bringing in the surprises up until the very end. I don't want to say anymore otherwise it might bring in spoilers just watch it. It is an original drama mystery in French but for me I watched it in English audio on Netflix and just so you know there's other audio languages available, well done writers and producers!

By far one of the best series I've seen in a long time with a strong European character. Essentially this a simple story about a old man who wants to have his life story written by a writer.
As the story unfolds it turns out to be horrible and full of death and destruction. As time goes by more and more becomes clear but the plot is only fully complete in the last scene of the last episode (be patient when the credits of the final episode appear on you screen).
The way this story develops is highly intelligent with flashbacks interchanging with currents events without leading to confusing. Cinematography and film techniques are excellent and support the way the story unfolds.
Acting is good, no exceptions, as are the dialogues. I cannot find anything against this series. Definitely recommended for those who love intriguing stories that are well told. If you do, look in original French with subtitles if needed.

Drop everything and watch Bleck Butterflies, the new French series on Netflix.
It goes from good to brilliant to one of the most satisfying thrillers.
If you liked La Mante or The Witnesses or The Promise and the likes, this is for you.
Or Mindhunter Dahmer or any of these genre this is one of the best you will ever watch.
The twists keep coming and you will be glued to the screen. It looks a bit like The Serpent another thriller on Netflix but this is not a true story and different to that. The acting is top notch the background music is brilliant and the 70s set pieces and locations are a treat to watch aesthetically,

The story is really perfectly written with attention to every and each character to give us a heavy meal of convincing thriller and mystery.
You can't pass single minute of the series Becouse the it has a lot to tell and the surprises never stop till the end of the series The actors abd actress played their roles in unbelievable way that makes you feel it's true not just a play.
Even the make up for each character was perfect to convince you it's the same person either when he was a child , youth or even old.
The Director did a great job to keep all the story aspect in his hand and he never lose the control till the end.
