Written by the director, the script plunges into a night in the midst of a nationwide revolt when a handful of activists suddenly disappear. Among them is 30-year-old Julia Bombarth. She wakes up in a totally unknown world: Planet B.

Produced by Ève Robin for Les Films du Bal, Planète B is co-produced by France 3 Cinéma, Auvergne Rhône-Alpes-Cinéma and Belgian outfit Wrong Men. Pre-bought by France Télévisions and by Netflix for the second window, the feature is also supported by the advance on receipt of the CNC, the South region, VOO and BeTV, Proximus, the RTBF, the Centre du Cinéma et de l'Audiovisuel de la Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and Sofica Cinémage, Cineventure and La Banque Postale Image. The 43 shooting days will unfold in Saint-Rapaël, Grenoble and Lyon, and will end on 10 May with a day in Île-de-France. Jeanne Lapoirie (three-time César nominee in her field) is the director of photography. Distribution in French cinemas will be handled by Le Pacte and international sales by Orange Studio.
