‘I Lost My Body’ Director Jérémy Clapin on His Live-Action Debut ‘Meanwhile on Earth,’ Hitting U.S. Theaters This Friday
Clapin and producer Marc du Pontavice discuss moving to live action and why, even after a Cannes win and an Oscar nomination, backing is hard to find.
Oscar-nominated “I Lost My Body” director Jérémy Clapin’s science fiction drama “ Meanwhile on Earth,” his live-action debut, will hit theaters in the U.S. Nov. 8, distributed by Metrograph Pictures. One picturesque evening, while stargazing near a radio tower, Elsa receives a message only she can hear from an extraterrestrial entity who says they can get Franck back to Earth, but only at a tremendous cost. It’s natural that Jérémy would come to the idea of portraying reality in live action, because it’s as close to real life as you can get and bringing the fantasy out of that footage makes a lot of sense.
