As TF1 airs the first two episodes of the Une Affair franchise this evening, its episode series adapted from the affair of little Gregory with Guillome de Doncotec, Plantine Bellawire and Guilloma Coyx, the news of France 2 L ‘Absent, a . At least in part.
L’Absente takes us to the Dunkirk neighborhood, dressed by Thibault de Montalmbert (ten percent), Clotild Carav, Mary Tennard (HPI), Salome DeVels (Lost Illusions) or Oliver Reportin (Guyana). It resembles the little marina that disappeared nine years ago. Is this really Marina Masana? And, if so, what happened to him over the years?
The pitch of this thriller, which is very effective, with family and intimate drama, is obviously reminiscent of the Natasha Kambush affair that hit the headlines in Austria. This is not accidental, as L’Absente’s producer Sophie Rawl (The Little Murders of Agatha Christie, 10) explains in a press release that this case, in fact, initially inspired screenwriter Delinda Jacobs, to whom we already owe La Forte.
“When Delinda Jacobs came to tell me this story, I did not hesitate for a moment. Like me, she was marked by the story of Natasha Kambush. A 10-year-old girl was abducted on her way to school in Vienna in March 1998. Eight years later, she reappeared on some streets from her parents. , Was able to escape the surveillance of her captor, a mentally ill man named Wolfgang Briglob, who had kept her in a cellar for so many years..
But the real story of Natasha Kampus was a source of inspiration for Linda Abbaste’s creator, Delinda Jacobs. Because France 2’s mini-series was primarily about the effects of the disappearance on Marina’s family and her parents, they ended up tearing each other apart.
“From surprises to twists, Delinda Jacobs takes us to a powerful and brilliant thriller. But there’s nowhere more interesting for her.”, Continues Sophie Rawl. “What she wants to investigate is the heart of her characters and the closeness of a family that was shattered after the death of little Marina.”.
“The characters in this single story have an extraordinary density and depth. A little girl is broken by a missing play. They make us deeply sad.
A story that lasts for eight episodes, makes the audience in France easily suspenseful 2. As well as the subscribers of the Salto streaming site have already been presenting the whole of L’Absente for several days.
