France, 17th Century. For more than three decades, a mysterious prisoner was moved from fortress to fortress under extraordinary secrecy, his identity concealed behind a mask and known only to a handful of powerful men. Ordered into confinement by the minister of Louis XIV in 1669, he would remain locked away until his death in 1703 — alive, but erased. Why was he hidden so carefully? What secret was so dangerous that it demanded absolute silence? Drawing on archival research, expert analysis, and the turbulent politics of the Sun King’s reign, this gripping historical investigation revisits one of France’s greatest unsolved enigmas. From theories of royal bloodlines and forbidden romances to diplomatic conspiracies and mistaken identities, the film explores the many faces behind the mask and the fragile power structures of absolutist France. A tale of intrigue, paranoia, and state secrecy that continues to fascinate more than 350 years later.
In the final three episodes, the journey deepens into a powerful exploration of culture, survival, and science at the planet’s edges. On a remote Pacific island threatened by rising seas, Will Smith joins Dr. Walworth and John Aini to document a dying language spoken by only five people, turning marine research into an intimate race against time to preserve human memory. The mission reveals how climate change erodes not just coastlines, but identities. The adventure then shifts to extremes of land and ice. In the Kalahari Desert, Will learns survival from the San people, confronting the limits of his endurance during a traditional hunt with guide Kane Motswana. The odyssey culminates beneath the ice of the North Pole, where, alongside polar ecologist Allison Fong, a daring dive to collect critical samples is jeopardized by a sudden storm and equipment failure. What follows is a gripping test of courage and teamwork that redefines heroism at the end of a 100-day quest.

As investigations deepen, the film uncovers how the state’s drive for profit fuels overcrowding, forced labor, and violence — conditions that thrive in secrecy. What begins as a story of survival becomes a powerful quest for justice, giving a face and a voice to those the system tried to erase.
