Fortier is a French-language Canadian television series which debuted on February 8, 2001 on TVA. A subtitled version later aired on the English-language CBC Television network, as part of its now-defunct late-night Best of French Canada anthology series.[1]
Anne Fortier (Sophie Lorain) is a criminal psychologist who works with the investigators of SAS (Anti-Sociopathic Service), a fictional police division specialising in crimes involving mental illnesses. Although their crimes include a shoe thief and a pyromaniac, most of the cases given a lot of time on the series are murders, often serial killings. While solving these cases Fortier and her colleagues must wrestle with her own murky past and psychological issues.
