The Sleeper By The River

Q&A with the Filmmakers

Dominique Pinon (Delicatessen, Amelie) stars in this quirky, touchingly heartbreaking ‘dramedy.” Based on the award winning dark comedy novel "Les Bottes Rouges" ("The Red Boots") by Franz Bartelt, it is a story of love, sex, friendship, madness, the Zen of making French fries and homemade beer. Filmed in the beautiful French Ardennes and directed by Manuel Sanchez (Les Arcandiers). Also stars Marina Tomé, Pascal Turmo and Delphine Depardieu.
