Gaumont Germany’s Sabine de Mardt Discusses Timely Series ‘The Interpreter of Silence,’ ‘In Her Car,’ New Projects


Gaumont Germany is combining broader entertainment with relevance in such timely series as 'The Interpreter of Silence' and 'In Her Car.'

A subsidiary of the French entertainment powerhouse, the Cologne and Berlin-based company also created such ambitious shows as Netflix’s historical epic “Barbarians” – the first season of which was one of the streamer’s most successful non-English-language series worldwide – and the award-winning Sky Original comedy “The Wasp,” about a professional dart player seeking to return to his former glory. Discussing the company’s latest productions, Gaumont Germany President Sabine de Mardt says it’s important to combine broader entertainment with relevance, something both “The Interpreter of Silence” and “In Her Car” offer. Produced for Disney+ and based on the novel by Annette Hess, who also created and wrote the series, “The Interpreter of Silence” is the story of a young woman in 1963 whose life changes when she is hired as a translator for the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials.
