In the confines of an American penitentiary, I find myself playing Frank (Ben-Adir), a man serving a life term who assumes a nurturing role for senior inmates grappling with memory loss. This BAFTA-nominated British thespian has been turning heads lately with his portrayals of Bob Marley in Reinaldo Marcus Green’s ‘Bob Marley: One Love’ and Malcolm X in Regina King’s ‘One Night in Miami’. My co-star, Morgan, renowned for ‘The Last Black Man in San Francisco’ and ‘Bull’, portrays Louis, a fellow inmate struggling with memory deterioration.
Initially making strategic efforts to enhance his chances for early release, the main character instead develops a heartfelt bond with another inmate, which leads him to reconsider and redefine his perspectives on self-worth, accountability, and the possibility of change.
The team additionally features Indira Varma (known from ‘Game of Thrones’), Rosalind Eleazar (‘Slow Horses’), and René Pérez Joglar, also recognized as Residente – a Grammy-winning musician who has recently been nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for his acting in ‘In the Summers’.
Frank & Louis was a joint creation of Volpe and Esther Bernstorff (4 Kings) and was produced by Reto Schaerli and Lukas Hobi, under the banner of Zodiac Pictures. Caspian Films’ Georgie Paget and Thembisa Cochrane also served as co-producers. This production is backed by Swiss public broadcaster SRF and SRG SSR, along with financial support from national and regional film funds.
Ben-Adir is managed by CAA, The B-Side (U.K.), and Range Media Partners; Morgan is handled by Elysian Heights and Fox Rothschild; Volpe is represented by Cora Olson of Range Media Partners in America and Beate Wolgast of Die Agenten in Germany; Pérez Joglar is under CAA, Varma is with 42 in the UK and Principal Entertainment in the U.S., while Eleazar is signed to The Artists Partnership in the UK and Principal Entertainment in the United States.
