France TV Distribution has launched international sales for new series “When the Night Comes,” which explores the impact of sexual violence, at the Unifrance Rendez-Vous in Le Havre.
Created by Marine Gacem and produced by top French TV production company Elephant Story for France TV, the six-part series, inspired by true events, follows four women, – Stéphanie, Camille, Isabelle and Nafissa, all victims of a serial rapist – who join forces, refusing to stay silent and instead speak out to a silent community.
Assaulted in the middle of the night in their homes in a seaside town, they recount the same modus operandi, the same shock. With the help of Karine, a police officer, and Romain, Stéphanie’s tormented brother, the women fight to rebuild their lives.
Directed by Franck Steen fro
