Award-Winning Director Dominik Moll Talks The Night of the 12th on Tom Needham’s SOUNDS OF FILM

Based on a true crime book by Pauline Guéna, THE NIGHT OF THE 12TH is a gritty mystery posing uneasy questions about the male-dominated world of law enforcement, and their ability to handle the violent crimes routinely perpetrated against women victims.

One of the most celebrated and acclaimed French films of 2022-3, following its international premiere at Cannes, THE NIGHT OF THE 12TH would go on to be nominated for 11 prestigious César Awards and capture seven, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor (Bouli Lanners), Most Promising Actor (Bastien Bouillon) and Best Sound. Also nominated for six 2023 Lumiere Awards, the gripping thriller would win two, including Best Film and Best Screenplay. It also won two 2023 Magritte Awards for Best Actor (Bouli Lanners) and Best Foreign Film in a Co-Production.
