Guernsey’s tribute to mark 50 years since premiere of The Story of Adèle H.

A special tribute is being created to celebrate the anniversary of an Oscar-nominated movie filmed in Guernsey 50 years ago.

The Story of Adèle H. features dozens of locations across the island and local actors. To mark its half-century milestone, a new documentary is being made about the film.

The French historical drama focused on the true story of Adèle Hugo, the youngest daughter of author Victor Hugo, and her unrequited love for a military officer.

To mark the anniversary, The Victor Hugo Centre teamed up with filmmaker Lars Janssen to create a short documentary about the project.
