Trioscope (“The Liberator”) is set to adapt Enki Bilal’s French graphic novel series “Le Sommeil du monstre” (The Sleep of the Monster) into a premium TV serues.
“Monster” will transport viewers to a chaotic and savage futuristic world where Nike Hatzfeld, a man with the unique ability to recall every memory since the day he was born, finds himself using his gift to make sense of his orphaned past.
His story intertwines with Leyla and Amir, born just days apart from him in the same orphanage bed and also parentless amidst the bombs of Sarajevo in 1993 during the Yugoslav Wars.
Considered expendable and manipulated by a radical organization trying to eradicate science and truth from the world, the trio’s lives split into divergent paths before they reunite once more.
The series will draw visual inspiration from Bilal’s style and world building, and will blend live-action performances with CG environments.
