German producer Roman Paul, of Razor Film (“Quo Vadis, Aida?”), Britain’s Andrea Calderwood, head of prominent London-based indie Potboiler Productions, and Italy’s Marta Donzelli, partner in Vivo Film (“The Last One for the Road”), have teamed up on the high-profile project. Donzelli was instrumental in winning the bidding war for the book’s rights that were negotiated with Claire Sabatié-Garat, who is Latronico’s literary agent.
