Synopsis

Motive, Season 1 — a Canadian crime drama, 13 episodes — is available to watch online on iFILM. The format is the hook: every episode opens by showing the killer and the victim before the crime. Vancouver homicide detective Angie Flynn doesn't have to find who did it — she has to figure out why.

Flynn and her partner Vega work through a parade of cases: a high school teacher, a teenage girl killed in a hit-and-run, a limo driver, a priest with enemies, a boxer found stabbed in his own gym. Each victim has a hidden life that explains the death. The season closes on a case that cuts close — a past murder that first put Angie on this path.

This format works best for viewers who want logic over surprises: knowing the killer from minute one shifts all the tension onto the motive. Stream Motive Season 1 online on iFILM.
