DO NOT CROSS THE LINE is a gripping female led procedural drama set entirely in a police station where four officers and a coroner have only 24 hours to crack each case. The head of the unit is a skilled policewoman with a secret life of drug abuse, bouts of agoraphobia and suicidal tendencies. She runs a tight knit, highly orchestrated team who push boundaries of ethical practices when in a race against the clock to get their suspects to confess. Troubled with an obsessive lifestyle, the unit head often finds herself in the interrogation room with her own alter ego. In a struggle against her agoraphobic behaviour, she often sleeps in her own office and carries on dalliances with several male suitors at a time. When her superiors question unusual operating tactics, they get conveniently overlooked as the unit manages to pull out the most remarkable results just in time. When a handsome new officer joins the team, things get even more complicated in a heated plan to seduce his lady boss in a sizzling effort to further his own career. Challenged by recurring sex and drug problems that are destructive, our unit head narrowly escapes defeat and ultimately ensures the survival of the unit under the daily pressures to perform in often self-imposed and brutal conditions.
DO NOT CROSS THE LINE is available as a ready made series (20 x 45') and format rights, based on the original French procedural drama series DOS AU MUR (20 x 45’) airing on NRJ 12 and CHÉRIE 25 (France). Produced in 2013 by MASCARET FILMS and PROJECT IMAGES FILMS.
