النساء والقاتل

This could have been a great documentary but it lacks the necessary focus: the victims and the killer fade somewhat into background and leave the spotlight to an excessive number of scattered interviews. I respect the choice of giving a voice to families and survivors, but making a documentary about a serial killer without explaining adequately his MO, genesis and motives, doesn't really cut it.

It's an amazing documentary which has everything to hold your attention. Only one thing .....the narrative are stretched too far and could have been received better of the running time / length was shorter.

Besides a look at a criminal investigation, this documentary provides a very insightful look at how the French deal with serious criminal cases and how their humanity shines through even though it so painful for all parties to do so. I don't know if this happens all the time in France but it seems a more humane and socially mature approach to dealing with criminal justice than what is practiced in North America. There is a great message and a lot to be learned here.

Even fast forwarding this docu was boring. It exists almost fully out of group of female researchers looking for the killing of their daughters. Emotionally and interesting for them but not for many viewers.
