Pascal Thomas returns to the literature of Agatha Christie ? following his adaptation of Mon Petit Doigt M′a Dit ? for his latest, an interpretation of Christie’s Towards Zero. Guillaume, his ex-wife Aude, and his current wife Caroline head to his Aunt Camilla’s rambling country home in Brittany and right into an explosive mix or murder, twists, and turns. When Camilla is found dead in her bed, Inspector Bataille is left to determine what happened. Towards Zero is a comedy-drama in the finest tradition of Christie, with clarity only coming at the story’s conclusion. Thomas has proved adept at translating Christie to France, and infuses the material with his own subtle humor, perfectly relayed by a strong cast, led by Danielle Darrieux (8 Women) and Melvil Poupaud (Time to Leave).
