The disgraced director Roman Polanski will shoot a movie based on real events, dedicated to an innocent convict. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he will be movieing the story of Alfred Dreyfus, the hero of the famous trial of the late 19th century. A Jew by origin, Dreyfus served in the French General Staff. In 1894, a list of secret documents was discovered that were allegedly transferred to the German attache in France. Suspicion fell on Dreyfus, the investigation believed that it was in his handwriting that this list was written. He was sentenced to life in prison. As it turned out later, the verdict was based on a forgery made by the investigation. A year later, a review of the case began, as many considered the evidence against Dreyfus insufficient for such a serious charge. Later, the term of his detention was reduced, and then the President of France signed a decree on pardon. As a result, Alfred Dreyfus was fully acquitted in all rights and even promoted in rank. The Dreyfus affair caused a serious resonance in French society. The main role in Polanski's movie will be played by the actor Louis Garrel, who starred in another biopic - Young Godard.
