While Joachim recovers from Marta’s death by providing unexpected support to Cléo in Here it all begins, Sara Friti, the interpreter of the deceased young woman, revealed how she learned of her character’s death. And it’s not very glorious.
While it is not uncommon to see characters leave (and return) in Here it all begins, Marta is the first “dead” in the TF1 series. A sudden death which leaves some of the students and teaching staff in mourning. On the other hand, a smart guy, Gaspard, not to mention his name, made a mockery of the situation by evoking the ghost of Marta lurking around the Institute. In an interview given to our colleagues at TV 7 days, Sarah Fitri, the interpreter of the deceased young woman, reveals the not very elegant way in which she learned of the death of her character.
Here it all begins : Sarah Fitri reveals how she learned of the death of Marta, her character
As sudden as Marta’s death is, this plot has not only been filmed for a long time but it was obviously imagined even further in advance. Plenty of time in any case for the production to warn its interpreter, Sarah Firtri. The actress had certainly left the soap opera for a while, but her character was nonetheless mentioned from time to time. And as fans know, just because someone leaves doesn’t mean their departure is permanent.
Except this time. All the more reason to warn the actress. And yet… “I knew she [Marta] was going to die but not through production. I learned it because I am still in contact with actors who are in the series, reveals Sarah Fitri in the interview. Luckily my friends were there to tell me. […] I still find that calling the actor, or at least his agent, would be normal, continues Marta’s interpreter. Or even just send a message, a text message, a voice note to say that your character is going to die, just that. That’s how it is and it’s ok.” The young woman still wants to temper herself, so as not to be accused of “spit in the soup” : “It’s not negative. In reality, I’m not surprised, it doesn’t surprise me. I imagine they have other fish to fry. Maybe they ran out of time.. .”. And to conclude: “But I still have the right to have an opinion and to feel feelings…”.
Here it all begins : Alice Aviez-Matton reveals why she was surprised by the return of Cléo, her character
If Marta leaves the adventure definitively, another character is back. It’s about Cléo, just released from the psychiatric hospital, who has surprisingly come to hide out at the Institute where she only has enemies. If this return was imagined shortly after his first departure from the series, last October 1 on the air, it surprised Alice Aviez-Matton, the young woman’s interpreter. “We talked about it some time after I left with production but we had to sort out scheduling issues, the actress told us. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting anything, I thought it would be nice to come back. On the other hand, yes, I was rather surprised by the speed of Cléo’s return.”
