D’après une histoire vraie, or as an English title says “Based on a True Story”, is an upcoming thrilling drama included into the working volume of director Roman Polanski who has co-written the script also with Olivier Assayas, collaborating with him for the first time.

On a side note, this is the fourth collaboration between husband and wife Roman Polanski and Emmanuelle Seigner. They previously worked together in Frantic (1988), Bitter Moon (1992), The Ninth Gate (1999) and Venus in Fur (2013).

The film is being shot in the Perche region and in Paris, France. Production began on November 7, 2016, in Chapelle-Royale.
As far as the acting cast is concerned, the lead roles turn to be performed by Emmanuelle Seigner, Vincent Perez, and Eva Green. This film is Eva’s second French language film. Her first was Jean-Paul Salomé’s Arsène Lupin (2004) with Romain Duris.

What do we know about the story? In fact, we have only a few facts at hand. The first one is that it is based on a 2015 eponymous novel by Delphine de Vigan. The book was released in 2015 in France and has won the Prix Renaudot and Goncourt des Lyceens. The English translated version of the book will be released on May 9, 2017. Consequently, we are not privy to what is waiting for us on a big screen this year.
