MHz Choice announces its March lineup

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MHz Choice, the premier streamer of international series for U.S. and Canadian audiences, will premiere two distinct drama series each set in Mallorca, Spain. Spitfire (Federation Entertainment) follows Detective Aina Anglada as she begrudgingly works with her new partner Damia to find a serial killer before it's too late. The pair follow a grisly trail of body parts like breadcrumbs from the disturbed killer. Trust is in short supply within this police unit as the detectives, their commander and others struggle to work together.

Gabià - Operation Cage (Videoplugger) ventures into more political territory through this fictionalized drama centered around the real-life 2009 Palma Nova bombing by ETA, the Basque nationalist and separatist organization. The two-part series from Spain follows Xavi (Xavi Núñez), who lives on a boat and befriends a tourist couple now stuck on Mallorca during a mandatory lockdown activated in the aftermath of the bombing. As his personal life gets more strained with his daughter and ex-wife, Xavi's paranoia begins to get the best of him as he suspects his new friends have something to do with the attacks.

MHz Choice will also premiere two French detective series: Seasons 1 and 2 of the long-running Cherif (France Televisions), and popular police dramedy Deadly Tropics (Federation Entertainment). Set in Lyon and Martinique respectively, each series features eccentric detectives paired with more strait-laced counterparts. Cherif stars Abdelhafid Metalsi as the unconventional Captain Kader Cherif who works to solve murders just as hard as he tries to loosen up his strictly by-the-book partner Adeline Briard (Carole Bianic). The two lead detectives in Deadly Tropics, Mélissa Sainte-Rose (Sonia Rolland) and Gaëlle Crivelli (Béatrice de la Boulaye), are the ultimate odd couple as the series follows their detective work and hard-earned friendship.

Also premiering in March is the short-form series Fin Ar Bed (Videoplugger), which, at ten minutes per episode, tells the story of a carjacking gone sideways. Three complete strangers end up on a darkly comic and poignant road trip through Brittany.

Returning to MHz Choice in March is Season 3 of Tandem (LS Distribution) where murder investigations continue in Montpellier by the ex-husband and wife detective duo.
