Plots(1)
The series taps into the charter of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate cross-border crimes and ultimately bring global criminals to justice. "Crossing Lines" is set in the world's most exotic locales, while the elite team of eager cops work to solve the most notorious international crimes. A global "FBI" is born. Through globalization, many countries' borders have been opened and barriers removed to ensure easy trade, travel and cultural diversity. However, this openness has given opportunities to criminals looking to exploit the system and ultimately threaten our global safety. As Europe has become a "safe house" for criminals eluding law enforcers, a special kind of law enforcement team is needed to handle specific ongoing crimes on a global level.
"Crossing Lines" is the story of one such team, made up of five international cops, headed by captain Louis Daniel. The team – comprised of individuals who have little in common – must learn to live and work under the most dangerous and potentially deadly conditions. Housed in an unused storage section underneath the ICC, this mismatched team faces bureaucratic, jurisdictional and cultural obstacles while traversing the world's most exotic settings filled with suspense, danger and action in pursuit of justice. The relationships between the characters depict the power of friendship and belief in one another. It's about the eternal beauty of youth and how being around it can make even the most tortured soul remember what they used to be and strive to be it again. (official distributor synopsis)
