Written by Frédéric Tellier and Simon Moutaïrou (Black Box, The Crew [+lee también:

ficha de la película]), the script tells the story of three fates: that of France, activist, sports teacher by day and worker by night; that of Patrick, a somber and solitary lawyer in Paris specialised in environmental law; and that of Mathias, a brilliant lobbyist and a very busy man. They will see their fates shaken up and intertwined by the act of a desperate female farmer. A terrible, irrevocable act.

Produced by Julien Madon (Producer on the Move 2016 of the European Film Promotion, and already partner on Frédéric Tellier’s first two features) for Single Man Productions, Goliath is co-produced by Studiocanal (which will be handling French distribution and international sales) and by Belgian company Gapbusters. Pre-bought by Canal+ and Ciné+, the feature film also benefits from the support of the Bretagne région and of the Soficas Sofitvcine, Cinemage, La Banque Postale Image, Indefilms and Palatine Etoile. The nine weeks of filming will take place in Brittany, Paris and Brussels with Renaud Chassaing as director of photography.
