#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Christine Leunens’ work was adapted into Taika Waititi’s Oscar-winning film, Jojo Rabbit. Her new book, In Amber’s Wake, captures the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior, an indelible moment for her as a young student in Paris. Hear the story behind the story that is already destined for Hollywood as a romance set in the shadow of the Cold War.
