Jean-Pierre Jeunet To Direct Adaptation Of French Bestseller “Changer L’Eau Des Fleurs’ For Palomar & 24 25 Films
Jean-Pierre Jeunet Boards Adaptation Of French Bestseller “Changer L’Eau Des Fleurs’ For Palomar and 24 25 Films; Studiocanal On Board As Co-Producer
Changer l’eau des fleurs, which translates as “changing the flower water”, revolves around a woman called Violette Toussaint who is the caretaker for a cemetery in a small town in Burgundy. It is the second literary work of novelist, screenwriter and photographer Perrin, who also co-wrote a number of screenplays with husband Claude Lelouche for his films, including We Love You, You Bastard(2014), Un + Une(2015) and The Best Years of a Life(2019). He suggested, however, that his approach would be more simplistic with this film saying he had taken inspiration for tone from Russian director Mikhail Kalatozov’s 1958 Cannes Palme d’Or winner The Cranes Are Flying.
