Dominik Moll on Lemming
Dominik Moll talks LemmingHugely celebrated for his suspense-fuelled drama Harry, He’s Here to Help (Harry, un ami qui vous veut du bien), Dominik Moll pitches his work somewhere between Hitchcock and Bunuel. His follow-up is the equally suspenseful Lemming starring Charlotte Rampling which opened this year’s Cannes Film Festival and, after its LFF premiere, will hit UK screens next year. An eloquent and inspiring speaker who really explains the process of making films, Dominik Moll joins us for a lunchtime conversation to talk about the art of balancing droll comedy with chilling tension.
