- The series follows the lives of five young French media personalities.
  
  Sacha Baron is a TV host and producer, as well as a columnist on the popular show "Le Grand Happening" hosted by Tom Delage. Trapped in a role for the show's sake, he struggles to break free and adopts a nasty attitude towards the technical teams behind the scenes. Dealing with stress and anxiety, he turns to drugs and antidepressants.
  
  Ian Thorpe is a television actor who stars in a successful TV series. To his fans, he presents a false image. Unfaithful and manipulative, he lives on the edge and has an affair with the producer's wife.
  
  Ryan Duval is a high fashion model representing major brands. Immature and irresponsible, his mother controls his life. The reputation of Triss, another model from the "Gabryelle" agency, catches his eye. Seeing Triss as a threat to his career, he sets him up.
  
  Estelle Roche is a young comedian performing in a famous Parisian café-theater. With her dark humor, she often skirts the limits of morality and political correctness. One night, during her new show, her comments spark controversy, shocking the audience and drawing public ire.
  
  Safia Edou is a journalist, activist, committed feminist, and commentator for a Parisian radio station. She frequently debates with politicians, scientists, authors, and essayists. Off-air, the control room records a private conversation where she defends the feeling of insecurity experienced by people of color in France against police violence.
  
  These five personalities, who are friends, receive an invitation one day to the inauguration of a manor, for the launch of a new media blog. Other celebrities are also invited. During the evening, the blog publishes damning articles about Sacha, Estelle, Ian, Safia, and Ryan. They have been spied on, filmed, photographed, and recorded without their knowledge. An anonymous figure aims to destroy their reputations by publicly exposing their behaviors and misdeeds.
  
  A longtime friend, Bastien Cassoni, a renowned journalist, decides to help them. By cross-referencing the information they have, the six young people unite to unmask the culprit.
