The script was enticing.
And the true story.
Part of the filming of Thomas Lilti's next film,
A Serious Job
(with François Cluzet, Vincent Lacoste and Louise Bourgoin), will go well over the next few days in Normandy, particularly in Caen (Calvados).
And extras have been sought.
But false ads for extras have circulated on social networks, reports
Ouest-France
, citing Christelle, 32, who was asked "1,250 euros" to supposedly "take out insurance with the agency responsible for the filming ".
A meeting with “the manager in charge of financial transactions”
In Caen and its outskirts, she is obviously not the only one to have responded to these messages.
Contacted by the regional daily, the production is nevertheless formal: “We never ask for money to participate in a shoot and the extras do not need to take out insurance”.
“We were asked to send a copy of both sides of our identity card”, detail two other women on Actu.fr, who have experienced the same story.
One also went to the police station after a few exchanges "full of spelling mistakes" with these false organizers and before a pseudo appointment stalled with "the manager in charge of financial transactions".
Ouest-France
recalls that dedicated platforms exist "for those wishing to do extras".
Without slamming their PEL.
