Written by the director herself (who was selected for Emergence thanks to this project), the story revolves around 27-year-old engineer Léo who is forced to give up his father’s farming land to a rare metals drilling company, the latter having taken his own life three years previously. But strange phenomena lead Léo to believe these operations are polluting the river he loved as a child. He throws himself into a hallucinatory investigation which confronts him with his grief.

Produced by Lucie Fichot on behalf of Folle Allure Films and by Nelson Ghrénassia for Yukunkun Productions, Les truites has been pre-purchased by Canal+ and Ciné+, and benefits from an advance on receipts and selective digital visual effects support from the CNC, as well as backing from the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté and Normandy regions. Filming will last upwards of six weeks, with Thomas Favel heading up photography. The film’s release in French cinemas will be steered by Paname Distribution.
