Another Mother’s Son, which is currently being filmed in the UK, stars Judge John Deed actress Jenny Seagrove and former Boyzone singer-turned-actor Ronan Keating.
Produced by Bill Kenwright Films, it tells the story of Jersey resident Louisa Gould and her brother, Harold Le Druillenec, who were betrayed by neighbours and arrested in 1944 for harbouring escaped Russian worker Feodor Buryi.
Louisa Gould died in a gas chamber in the German concentration camp at Ravensbrück in February 1945. Mr Le Druillenec was one of just two British survivors of the Belsen camp along with fellow Islander Frank Le Villio.
The film was written by Mrs Gould’s great-niece, Jenny Lecoat, who grew up in Jersey. Its title is based on the fact that Mrs Gould took in Feodor after her own son died during the war, as she did not want to see another mother suffer in the way that she had.
