Zorro, a TV show by Jean-Baptiste Saurel and Émilie Noblet

Followed by a conversation with co-author Benjamin Charbit.
The year is 1821. Don Diego de la Vega is elected mayor of Los Angeles, eager to improve his beloved city. However, the city faces financial problems and his powers as mayor are not nearly enough to fight the rampant injustice. He hasn’t pulled out his Zorro costume in 20 years, but this certainly seems like the moment. Starring the inimitable, Oscar-winning Jean Dujardin at his comic, swashbuckling best!
