Created by Claire LeMaréchal and Franck Philippon, Clean is a French series that combines social comedy, family drama and financial suspense, in a format inspired by the English series Cleaning Up (2019). The lead role goes to Alix Poisson, who plays Lola, a cleaning lady working in a major bank, struggling with a difficult divorce and looming debts.
When she catches a broker in the act of insider trading, Lola seizes a risky opportunity: to use this confidential information to play the stock market and escape from precariousness. She takes on two other employees, played by Léonie Simaga and Thaïs Vauquières, and embarks on an increasingly perilous double life.
Clean is broadcast on M6 with episodes 1 and 2 on April 4, 2025, followed by episodes 3 and 4 on April 11, 2025.
Synopsis: As a bank cleaning lady, Lola risks losing custody of her two daughters in a messy divorce, not least because of her chronic indebtedness. The discovery that a bank broker is engaging in insider trading offers her a unique opportunity to solve her money problems: to take advantage of these financial tips to play the stock market. She enlists two colleagues in this scam, which forces her to invent a dangerous double life for herself...
Clean is aimed at an adult audience interested in contemporary social stories, with strong female protagonists confronting precariousness, injustice and the financial system. The series tackles current themes such as inequality, solo parenthood, sisterhood and the dangers of finance, while blending an edgy and sometimes ironic tone.
It could appeal to viewers who have enjoyed series such as En thérapie, Dix pour cent or Plan Cœur, but with a more marked dramatic tension, close to Breaking Bad in the narrative structure of an anti-heroine who turns to illegality to survive.
With Alix Poisson in a strong lead role and a script that straddles the line between thriller and social comedy, Clean offers a contemporary, committed reading of ordinary struggles. This French adaptation gives local resonance to the financial and social issues tackled in the original British series, adding an emotional and human dimension firmly rooted in reality.
