Albino Rodrigue’s Daughter: A gruesome crime incident inspires this steamy drama with Emily Deken

Director Christine Dore returns behind the camera fifteen years after her last film, The Indivisibles, with La Fille d’Albino Rodrigue.

Loosely inspired by real events, the drama follows 16-year-old Rosemary, who portrays the revelation of Galatea Beluji, recently seen in theaters in Dog of Case. The teenager lives with the foster family and joins the biological family only for recreation.

One day, her father is not there to greet her as planned. Moreover, it does not appear and seems to have evaporated. Her questions turn out to be lies, Rosemary only trusts her intuition.

“I’m quite lazy, I wrote films for other people, and time flies incredibly fast. Then I raised my son, I lived my life”Christine Dore confided New Republic To justify a 15-year absence from the camera.

The filmmaker adapted the news that took place in Nice and Antibes and broadcast it in the Vosges. “I knew part of the story. What I did know was that everyone at the trial said they had never seen a mother act like that. Basically, a mother covers for her child. She forced it. I kept the mother-daughter relationship out of the story for the film.”The director explains.

To camp Rosemary, Christine Dory chose rising star of French cinema Galatea Beluge, who appeared in L’Apparition with Vincent Lyndon. With his original and childish phrases, this 26-year-old actor could easily slip into the skin of a 16-year-old teenager.

“I saw it on the advice of a friend, Stefan Batut, who is the director of Vif Argent and also the casting director. I showed the girls I found, he was not impressed. I thought Galatea was too old. It took me a year to see it, but in the end he was right It was: She played this girl perfectly who has the courage to escape her mother’s clutches.”– says Christine Dor.

La Fille d’Albino Rodrigue, starring Galatea Bellugi, Emilie Dequenne and Samir Guesmi, hits theaters on May 10.
