Created by George Kay, the story takes inspiration from the adventures of Arsène Lupin, the early 20th-century French literary character created by Maurice Leblanc. The series follows the exploits of Assane Diop (Omar Sy), a gentleman thief and master of disguise, who sets out on a mission to avenge his father for an injustice inflicted by a wealthy family.
