Canneseries Entry ‘How to Kill Your Sister,’ Directed by Jonas Geirnaert and Created by Evelien Broekaert and Pedro Elias, Takes on ‘The Big C’

In the Belgian-German series, one of three Banijay Entertainment titles at Canneseries, terminally ill Anna (Emma Rotsaert) shows up at her sister’s doorstep after eight years of silence following their parents’ passing (Sofie Decleir, Nico Sturm). With a coffin on the roof of her car, she wants Kat (Marjan De Schutter) to join her on a trip to Spain and help her die on her own terms. You can’t be abusing this terrible illness just for laughs,” admits director Jonas Geirnaert, who co-wrote the show with Evelien Broekaert and Pedro Elias.
