Run Lola star Franka Potente is getting a different dramatic chance to shine. She is going to be a part of a new lost at sea film called Wave. She will be joined by Dougray Scott and Marianne Faithful.

Based on Louise Longo’ Let Me Survive, the film will focus on an English family. They set out for a three week cruise on the Bay of Biscay. But a storm rushes in as they are just 40 miles from the Spanish coast, and the family decides that they would be safer in the life raft, waiting to be rescued. But Bernard is injured getting into the liferaft and dies, as does the young girl. The interesting part is that it is not the end of the story. After being rescued two weeks later, “she is alleged to have killed her husband.”

Maria Ripoll will direct the film, from an adaptation penned by Marie Laure Bertehlin and Greg Latter.
