BBC Buys Jean-Xavier De Lestrade’s ‘Samber’ Thriller Along With Other Broadcasters & Max


The BBC has bought 'Sambre - Anatomy Of A Crime' from Jean-Xavier De Lestrade starring Alix Poisson & Clémence Poesy

The France Télévisions thriller came fresh off the back of the smash success of French movie Anatomy of a Fall. It will take 30 years to catch a man, who never stopped attacking women and is responsible for at least 54 cases of rape or sexual assault, leading to repercussions that were still being felt at the beginning of the #metoo era. Produced by What’s Up Films and Federation Studios in coproduction with Versus Production, it was originally commissioned by France Télévisions.
