François Uzan, the writer behind the hit series Lupin, went undercover in a French school to ensure the authenticity of his latest Netflix project, ‘Recalé’. This comedy series, currently filming in Lille, focuses on a teacher infiltrating a mob. Uzan’s goal was to capture the real-life challenges teachers face today. He discovered that 90% of teachers struggle with budget issues. ‘Recalé’ aims to portray the difficulties of teaching, including dealing with students and parents, as well as the impact of strikes. Uzan emphasized the importance of social realism in the show. Alongside ‘Recalé’, Uzan discussed the success of Lupin, attributing its popularity to great intellectual property, the compelling presence of star Omar Sy, and the show’s setting.
