Production[edit]

And Their Children After Them is an adaptation of Nicolas Mathieu's 2018 novel of the same name, which received the prestigious Prix Goncourt.[5]

The film is produced by Hugo Sélignac for Chi-Fou-Mi Productions and by Alain Attal for Trésor Films, in co-production with France 3 Cinéma.[4] According to the producers, Nicolas Mathieu had been approached by many others filmmakers who were interested in producing "naturalistic adaptations". They won him over with their promise of an ambitious project in the style of Paul Thomas Anderson and Martin Scorsese, with Romanesque qualities.[1]

Principal photography began on 25 July and took place in France's Grand Est region, including in the Fensch valley (Moselle) and in the Vosges.[4][6][7][8][9][10] The 55-day shoot with Augustin Barbaroux as director of photography was wrapped on 10 October 2023,[4] on the pier of the Lac de Pierre-Percée (Meurthe-et-Moselle).[11]

Release[edit]

The film is scheduled to be theatrically released in France on 18 September 2024 by Warner Bros. France. French and international sales are handled by Paris-based company Charades.[4][12]
