Bowing in Canneseries official selection, six-episode miniseries “Infiniti” isn’t just for sci-fi aficionados, Empreinte Digitale producer Eric Laroche told Variety. Co-produced between France and …
offering – created by Stéphane Pannetier and Julien Vanlerenberghe – interweaves multiple storylines, moving from the International Space Station that suddenly goes silent to an investigation in Kazakhstan, where a beheaded, wax-covered body is found by a local cop.
“I am not a big traveler, but I live for cinema and for series. The first time I went to New York, I went: ‘Oh my God, I am in a movie.’ When I went to Japan, I kept saying ‘I’m in a Miyazaki film, in a Koreeda film.’ When I went to Kazakhstan, I said: ‘I don’t know where I am.’ I have never been on a journey like that.”
With Canal Plus on board, the producers decided to shoot mostly in English despite their international cast, featuring the likes of “The Whistlers” star Vlad Ivanov or Ukrainian-born Anatolii Panchenko. There were six languages spoken on set, which was both “frightening and exciting,” adds Laroche. Laroche adds: “This is the number one rule with series – you can create the most amazing set up, send the audience somewhere they have never been, but if the characters aren’t interesting, they won’t come back. I used to say that we all loved ‘Six Feet Under,’ but not because of the funeral home. It was because of that family.”
“Infiniti” was shot in France, Kazakhstan and Ukraine, and current events proved difficult for the entire team.
