Notre Dame Cathedral is one of the most popular monuments in Paris due to its particular architecture and its great history. His fire in April 2019 is what motivated Netflix to make a mini-series to tell the facts.
The French production that premiered on Netflix this week will recount the events experienced first-hand by the firefighters who were commissioned to explore the impact of the Notre-Dame cathedral fire.
The official synopsis of the story is as follows:
It is about the fate of men and women who have their own fire to put out. While the firefighters of Paris try to prevent the flames from spreading in the Cathedral, the show also follows the characters who submit to the wringer: they will have to fight each other, love each other, cross each other, hate each other, smile or help each other, so that, at end, they may have a chance to start over.
