Jean-Xavier de Lestrade, the Oscar-winning filmmaker behind docuseries The Staircase has made another crime thriller based on true events and it's coming to the BBC in the UK.
Lestrade's 2004 Netflix documentary The Staircase looked into the case of Michael Peterson and the suspicious death of his wife, Kathleen, after she was found dead at the bottom of the stairs of their sprawling North Carolina family home. Now, the filmmaker brings us Sambre – Anatomy of a Crime, a French crime thriller that recounts the extraordinary legal case of a serial rapist who attacked women across three decades in the same location.
