Leonardo Fuica has become an official member of The Sketch Artist's team for its third season.
The Sketch Artist's, also known as Portrait-Robot in Quebec, is a crime drama series consisting of ten episodes that premiered on Club Illico on April 15, 2021. The show was created by renowned canadian actor Sophie Lorain and canadian film director Alexis Durand-Brault, with Lorain also starring in the series. The story is set in Montreal and follows the work of Éve Garance, a forensic sketch artist who assists a police investigation unit led by Maryse Ferron, with the help of veteran detective Bernard Dupin and rookie crime scene technician Anthony Kamal. The series has been renewed for a second season, according to Club Illico's press release in October 2021. The show was also broadcast on SBS-TV's streaming service, On Demand, in Australia from December 16, 2021.
The Canadian TV show follows Éve Garance, a remarkable forensic identikit artist whose talents go beyond mere sketching. As she meticulously profiles suspects and victims for the esteemed Montreal police unit led by the tenacious Maryse Ferron, Éve's ability to immerse herself in the memories and recollections of others becomes the key to unlocking the truth behind each case.
But the complexities of Éve's life extend far beyond her professional pursuits. Haunted by the inexplicable disappearance of her infant son, William, five years ago, Éve carries the weight of this heart-wrenching loss on her shoulders. Complicating matters further is her battle with bipolar disorder, a constant struggle that adds an additional layer of vulnerability to her character. To make matters even more challenging, the unexpected return of her ex-husband, James, stirs up unresolved emotions and introduces a new dynamic to her already tumultuous life.
Meanwhile, the plot thickens as Canadian Intelligence enlists the expertise of lead detective Bernard Dupin, tasking him with a dangerous mission to infiltrate the local mafia. With the criminal syndicate planning to expand its operations, Bernard's role becomes pivotal in the fight against organized crime. As he mentors the eager rookie crime scene technician, Anthony Kamal, the duo must navigate treacherous waters, balancing their pursuit of justice with the ever-present risks that come with their line of work.
Amidst the high-stakes investigations and personal turmoil, Maryse Ferron, the strong-willed leader of the police unit, grapples with a deteriorating condition. Afflicted by brittle bone disease, her physical fragility becomes a constant reminder of her mortality. Compounding her concerns is the fact that her daughter, Delphine, is pregnant, leading to worries about the inheritability of her condition and the potential impact it may have on future.
