The documentary series SAS: Section agressions sexuelles follows for the first time on screen, the SPVM’s sex crimes squad by offering us privileged access to their investigators and their daily life within the section. These sexual assault investigations are always complex and delicate, among the most difficult to conduct. The SPVM’s Sex Crimes Squad gives us the opportunity to follow them and discover their difficult, but essential job.
