Plot Synopsis

Directed by Jesper H. Grand, PRIME SUSPECT: THE MADELEINE MCCANN CASE is a three-part documentary series that examines the new German suspect Christian B for the first time, and his link to one of the world's most well-known unsolved cases: Madeleine McCann's disappearance. Friends of the suspect, an ex-girlfriend and other key persons in the case, including the suspect's defense counsel, the German prosecutor and the former Portuguese investigator, have all chosen to participate in filming this documentary. All three 40-minute episodes of the series dropped on Monday, March 1, 2021 on discovery+:

Episode 1: German police claim to have a major breakthrough in the Madeleine McCann case. Two investigative journalists examine the background of this new suspect.

Episode 2: Current suspect Christian B. moves back to Germany, where he is accused of drug crimes and producing child pornography. In Portugal, the Madeleine McCann case is crumbling, and a key investigator is terminated.

Episode 3: Suspect Christian B. evades his prison sentence for child pornography and returns to Portugal, where he's arrested for allegedly exposing himself to children. In Germany, police hope they have sufficient evidence to charge him in Madeleine's death.
