Things are going well for Judith Godrech! The actor and director recently started shooting his second feature film: Girl’s Memory. It is an adaptation of Annie Erno’s novel of the same name.
The film takes as its starting point the dedication of 70-year-old Annie Ernot in Normandy. She still remembers the summer when she was 17 years old in 1958. That summer, he left his hometown to become a summer camp instructor. From the first party, the head instructor begins to spoil it. Finding it beautiful, he allows it to be done, as if in spite of himself… His body becomes a foreign place for him, an offering to be made.
One of his producers has already published the first photo from the shooting on Instagram.
