| Omar Sy leads the Studiocanal, Pate movie |
In a more family oriented genre, Oscar winning director
Michel Hazanavicius will helm fantasy family film
THE LOST PRINCE starring
Omar Sy, Berenice Bejo and
Francois Damiens.
It is a story of Djibi whose life revolves around his beloved 7 year
old daughter Sofia. The devoted single father never misses their
cherished ritual of bedtime stories. Every night as she falls asleep, he
takes her into “Storyland,” a fantasy film studio where their
extraordinary fairy tale adventures come to life with Djibi in the lead
role as the heroic Prince Charming.
Five years later and nearly a teenager, Sofia starts to grow out of her
father’s stories and instead makes up tales of her own with Djibi no
longer the heroic lead. As his roles in both the real world and in
“Storyland” begin to change, Djibi must find a way to forever remain the
hero of his daughter’s life, imagination and stories.
