"Vortex is a brilliant show innovating its genre : an extremely gripping investigation - partly rolled out in the virtual Space - that captures us to take us further to a deeply touching love and family drama. A perfect match to satisfy multiple linear and non-linear audiences today!" says Julia Schulte, SVP International Sales at France tv distribution.

"Quad Drama is proud and happy to be associated, with "Vortex", with the collaboration between France Télévisions and NETFLIX. A French and global setting for this series at the crossroads of genres, which takes viewers here and abroad on the whirlwind of a space-time journey, and on the rollercoaster of emotion, that of the unsolvable love dilemma." says Iris Bucher and Roman Turlure, producers at Quad Drama.

Moving heaven and earth to try and save her from her tragic fate by stopping her murderer, Ludovic is in danger of losing his own life in the present along with his wife Parvana and their son Sam.
