,” a fictionalized film that suggests a free diver deliberately killed his wife in a diving incident.Audrey Mestre
The film tells the story of “Pascal Gautier” and “Roxane Aubrey,” a fictionalized version of the couple. Gautier is depicted as abusive and jealous of Aubrey’s success. In the climactic scene, the film strongly implies that Gautier sabotaged her compressed air tank, leaving it without enough air to bring her to the surface.
The film includes a disclaimer saying that it is a “work of fiction” and that any resemblance to real people is coincidental. It also says that it is “inspired by real events.” At the end, there is a title card with Mestre’s photograph and a brief account of her death.in an interview that the film was vetted by lawyers before going into production, and he does not think Ferreras has a case.
Ferreras has maintained that Mestre’s death was a tragic accident and pointed to a report that attributed the malfunction to a series of technical factors. He also wrote his own book. At one point, James Cameron was working with him on a film project, and Jennifer Lawrence was also rumored to be on board in the part of Mestre. Ferreras is seeking to release his own documentary about the story.
His lawyer, Alexander Rufus-Isaacs, has sued Netflix twice, previously on behalf of people who say they were defamed by the platform’s fictional shows. Rufus-Isaacs represented Nona Gaprindashvili, a Georgian chess champion who was referenced in “The Queen’s Gambit,” when a character said, falsely, that she had never faced male competitors.
Well...
To be fair, it is very rare for a murderer to come out and say he/she murdered someone. Geez netflix gets sued ALOT.
