Where's Wanda?

Apple TV says that Where’s Wanda? is their first Geman-language series. It’s a dark comedy that follows Dedo and Carlotta Klatt as they desperately try to locate their missing 17-year-old daughter, Wanda.

Wanda disappeared months ago without a trace. The police fail to find her, and the family takes matters into their own hands. They obtain surveillance devices with the help of their tech-savvy son, Ole.

They even disguise themselves as employees of an electrical company so that they can bug their neighborhood and half their suburb. They want to find out what goes on behind closed doors. None of their neighbors are who they pretend to be.

High fashion meets high stakes in this behind-the-curtain look at how an iconic fashion house is thrown into scandal and reinvention by a viral video featuring star designer Vincent Ledu, played by Lambert Wilson, leaving his family’s iconic and legendary haute couture house, LEDU, hanging by a thread.

Perle Foster, played by Amira Casar, Vincent’s former muse still in his shadow, collaborates with visionary next-generation designer Paloma Castel, played by Zita Hanrotto, to save, evolve and renew the century-old Maison LEDU. Taking advantage of Vincent’s demise, Diane Rovel, played by Carole Bouquet, the ruthless CEO of the powerful Rovel luxury group, launches an offensive to acquire what she sees as her most important prize: Maison LEDU. To achieve her goal, anything is fair game, as this is more than acquiring just another brand — it’s about revenge.
