Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

The canyoning scenes were shot in real locations in Corsica with professional guides—actors performed their own stunts in freezing water.

Insight

Bailliu based the screenplay on his own corporate experience, calling it 'Lord of the Flies with expense accounts'—the tennis rivalry mirrors France's class tensions between old money and ambitious climbers.
