Written by Auteuil and Camille Lugan (The Book of Joy [+lee también:

Gilbert Lesage, a young civil servant at the Service Social des Étrangers, is tasked with setting up a screening commission to rule on the fate of the arrested Jews, while Father Alexandre Glasberg, a committed humanitarian, manœuvres to save them. Caught between Vichy’s bureaucracy and mutual-support networks, they will have to join forces to defy the machinery of the State and risk the unthinkable to wrench lives from the grim fate that awaits them.

Une nuit is being produced by Frédéric Jouve for Les Films Velvet and by Zack Films (Daniel Auteuil’s company), and is being co-produced by Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Cinéma. The cinematography is by Belgium's Jean-François Hensgens (nominated at the 2019 Magritte Awards in his field for Above the Law [+lee también:
