A series of grisly murders and the “quirky old lady” the police keep coming back to in their homicide investigation will form the basis of “Game Count,” Agnieszka Holland’s next feature project.
Holland is best known for the Holocaust dramas “In Darkness” (2011) and “Europa Europa” (1991), the latter of which was nominated for a Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. Recently, she has also been working steadily on TV shows like “House of Cards,” “The Killing,” Treme” and “The Wire,” as well as the newly updated “Rosemary’s Baby,” starring Zoe Saldana.
“Game Count” will be based on Polish author Olga Tokarczuk’s novel, the title of which translates to “Drive Your Plow Over the Bones Of The Dead.” Holland and Tokarczuk will co-adapt the book.
