Since its debut in 2019, Astrid and Raphaëlle is enjoying incredible audience success on France 2. Good news for the actresses who, it is not necessarily known to the general public, truly give of themselves during filming.
A waterfall larger than life
Also, while Sara Mortensen regularly has back pain because of the posture she imposes on herself to bring her heroine to life, Lola Dewar totally sacrificed a shoulder for the sake of a waterfall. Remember, in episode 2 of this season 5, Raphaëlle threw herself into the air to protect a child from being kidnapped.
A seemingly simple sequence, but which did not remain without consequences. “I didn't roll down the stairs, but I still picked up the child and fell onto a mattress to get out of the camera frame. It's not an easy task“, initially explained the actress to Télé-Loisirs.

“It was a bit complicated”
Then, afterwards, Lola Dewaere detailed how her body reacted to the scene: “I hurt my shoulder a little and it lasted six months. I dislocated my shoulder a little“, she whispered. And added: “I had a real 7 year old child in my arms and I had to fall with him, it was a bit complicated. The scene worked the first two times, and the third time, I received it badly.“
An improbable injury that she owes only to herself: “I absolutely wanted to do the stunt myself so that people would see me coming out of the frame, it's my fault“The good thing is that where she had”the impression that it was completely grotesque“, the result paid off,”It seems that it was credible in the image“.
Soon, she will be able to organize a crossover with TF1's Cat's Eyes!
