\n\tThe movie \u201crecreates one of the most curious episodes of the Belgian resistance movement during the Second World War, a clandestine operation that turned the press into a weapon against the Nazi occupiers,\u201d according to a synopsis.<\/p>\n

With\u00a0The Drop<\/em> (2014), starring Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace and James Gandolfini, the filmmaker won the jury prize for best screenplay at San Sebastian.<\/p>\n

\n\tBased on the book\u00a0Le \u201cFaux\u201d Soir, 9 novembre 1943<\/em> by Marie Istas, the cast of the new film features Arieh Worthalter, M\u00e9lanie Thierry, Karim Leklou, Mara Taquin, Bouli Lanners, Julien Frison and Fran\u00e7ois Damiens, among others. The story is set in 1943, when, having occupied Belgium, the Nazis turn the national newspaper\u00a0Le Soir<\/em>\u00a0into their propaganda tool. \u201cTo raise the spirits of the Belgian people, a group of resistance fighters comes up with a wild idea, to print a fake edition of the newspaper mocking the occupier in what some historians consider to be the first-ever media hack,\u201d reads the synopsis.<\/p>\n

\nLe Faux Soir<\/em> is a Belgian-French co-production. <\/p>\n

\n\tRoskam, who worked as a journalist for the Dutch-language newspaper\u00a0De Morgen<\/em>, made his feature film debut with\u00a0Bullhead<\/em>\u00a0(2011). In 2021, he directed the first three episodes of the miniseries Black Bird<\/em>, starring Taron Egerton, which received Emmy and Golden Globe award nominations.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this week, the Spanish festival unveiled Fatih Akin\u2019s Ghost Song<\/em> as its 2026 opening film. The 73rd edition of the San Sebastian festival takes place Sept. 18-26.<\/p>\n
