, the Belgian directing duo behind “Bad Boys For Life” and Cannes’ Midnight Screening title “Rebel,” are developing “2000,” a film based on Dirk Bracke’s “Straks doet het geen pijn meer.” It will mark the pair’s return to Belgium after lining up “Ms. Marvel” for Disney+ and “Batgirl” for HBO Max.
The book tells the true story of a teenage girl who is being sexually abused by her father and decides to fight back. This abuse survivor has been touch with the filmmakers and Decarpentries throughout the development of the feature, said Ben Yadir. Like the book, the film will take place in 2000 and El Arbi and Fallah said they had the ambition to make a “historical film about this period.”
He said the goal was also for the film to be accessible to young adults. “‘2000’ is going to follow the journey of this woman and how she will survive and set herself free, physically and psychologically, and ultimately fight back,” said Ben Yadir. Fallah and El Arbi are at Cannes to present “Rebel,” and are also taking meetings with Ben Yadir to find partners on “2000.”
