It's every parents' nightmare — a child kidnapped and, on the face of it at least, absolutely no idea where they are or who the culprit might be.

But this is no ordinary 6-year-old. Kimmy Diore is a YouTube 'kidfluencer' who is known to millions of fans around the world. And her vanishing is soon the subject of the kind of intrusive scrutiny and mad speculation that has come to characterize real-life child disappearances.

Enter Detective Sara Roussel (Géraldine Nakache). She, according to the official synopsis, "must investigate the unfamiliar world of social media and get close to Kimmy’s mother, uncovering secrets that cast doubt on the real culprit".
