British actress Kristin Scott Thomas is set to make her directorial debut with romantic drama “The Sea Change”.
Scott Thomas will also star as “the complex and witty” Lillian in the film which is based on Elizabeth Jane Howard’s novel. Mark Strong is in talks to play her husband Emmanuel.
The story centres on a group of people who re-evaluate loss, love and human connection when they find themselves together on a remote Greek island. Emmanuel is a successful London playwright, who has been married to the complex and witty Lillian for many years, but their marriage is in crisis, a crisis which is overcome by the arrival of a curious and outspoken young girl, Alice. Their relationship is thrown into perspective when her life is turned upside down.
Rebecca Lenkiewicz adapted the script. Fragile Films’ Baranaby Thompson is producing.
