"Bertillon: The Man Who Measured Crime" is a gripping documentary about Alphonse Bertillon, the eccentric French criminologist who invented mugshots and pioneered crime scene photography. His obsession with order reshaped forensic science—but his methods also led to scandal, injustice, and enduring controversy. Part true crime, part cautionary tale, this film explores the fine line between genius and overreach in the pursuit of justice.
