THE BLACK BOOK, latest film by Valeria Sarmiento, will be featured in the Contemporary World Cinema selection at the Toronto International Film Festival. It will be the film's World Premiere.

Valeria Sarmiento’s vibrant period piece tells the intertwining stories of an orphan and his nurse — both with mysterious pasts — as they navigate the shifting social and political landscapes of late-18th century Europe.

The film features Lou de Laâge, Stanislas Merhar, Niels Schneider, Jenna Thiam and Fleur Fitoussi.

The Festival will take place between the 6th and 16th of September. The film will be released in France on October the 3rd.
