Banijay's Screenline and Studiofact Stories, the makers of Prime Video's 'Cult' and Max's 'A Devoted Friend,' are teaming on 'The Kiabi Scammer.'
The series, which is produced in partnership with the French newspaper Le Parisien, is inspired by their bombshell investigation published last October and revolving around the story Aurélie B, a woman-next-door who embezzled more than 100 million euros while working as a financial director for the brand Kiabi for more than ten years. By focusing on a complex character with a dark, romantic side and modern writing, we aim toreach a wide audience with a taste for stories based on real events,” said Alexia Laroche Joubert, Banijay France director and Screen Line Productions’ Frederic Lussato. “Screenline made a remarkable entry into fiction with ‘Cult’ and we are committed to maintaining our high standards in order to offer stories that are both powerful and immersive, meeting the expectations of the market and the ambition of Banijay in this field.”
