Cinémoi Spotlight: Sarah's Key

Cinémoi welcomes director Gilles Paquet-Brenner (Pretty Things) and the best-selling author of Sarah's Key, Tatiana De Rosnay, to discuss the adaptation of her book into the film, which stars Kristen Scott Thomas (Leaving, I've Loved You So Long) and Niels Aestrup (A Prophet, The Beat That My Heart Skipped).

The story follows a journalist (Kristen Scott Thomas) in modern-day Paris who finds her life intertwined with a young girl whose family was torn apart during the notorious Vel' d'Hiv Roundup in 1942.

In this exclusive interview, we get an insight into how the director went about translating the language of the book into the language of cinema, and all the challenges it undoubtedly throws up. In UK cinemas August 5th
