"Happily Married" (C’est Comme Ça Que Je T’aime) has been chosen as an official selection at Berlinale Series 2020. The series, which is distributed worldwide by Cineflix Rights, will receive a world premiere at the festival next month.
Commenting on the selection, Julien Leroux, SVP of Global Scripted Co-Productions, Cineflix Media said: “We are honoured that Happily Married has been selected to be part of Berlinale Series 2020. This is a testament to the amazing creative team and fantastic cast behind the series, we look forward to launching this brilliant, dark comedy to the international market in Berlin."
"Happily Married" is produced by award-winning, Montreal-based Productions Casablanca, and is the latest series from writer François Létourneau and director Jean-François Rivard, who previously worked together on the critically-acclaimed and award-winning Les Invincibles and Série Noire. The 10-hour first-season comedy drama for Radio-Canada Télé and Tou.Tv Extra is set in the 1970s and recounts the “almost true” story of the ‘Sainte Foy Killers’.
The series revolves around two couples in crisis, let down by love, friendships, and family. After dropping their children off at camp in July 1974, both couples are confronted by the lamentable state of their married lives. But in a society where divorce is still frowned upon, their search for marital bliss leads them to take a series of drastic decisions and ultimately they become the most infamous quartet of criminals in Quebec history. The drama explores what motivates a group of unremarkable middle-class suburbanites to descend into a ruthless life of murder and criminality.
