The book was published in 2010 and this is not the first adaptation of the author's works. Directors Arnaud Larrieux and Jean-Marie Larrieux, having invited Mathieu Amalric to the main role in the film, worked with him for the fourth time. The actor himself embodied a kind of werewolf, a person who at certain moments assumed the form of a beast. The directors themselves spoke about the analogy with this wild and noble beast.

One of the options sounded like "Devil girls". Work on the film "Love is the perfect crime" began in the city of Megeve on February 12, 2013. In addition, part of the filming of the drama took place at the Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne, in Laveau, in Switzerland and other places. If the events in the novel begin in the spring, the directors decided to conduct the work in the winter. This season was more in line with their ideas for Mathieu Amalric's character. The tape did not miss prominent film festivals, getting into the competitive programs of events in Toronto and San Sebastián.
