Farmiga enhanced VERA FARMIGA, who had an electrifying cameo in Anthony Minghella's 'Breaking And Entering' and also starred in Martin Scorsese's 'The Departed', plays the role of the concentration camp commandant's wife in Mark Herman's adaptation of Irish novelist John Boyne's 'The Boy In The Stripped Pyjamas', which has started filming in Hungary. While nine-year-old son Bruno who, unaware of the Final Solution and the Holocaust develops a friendship with a Jewish boy on the other side of the wire, remains the central focus for the story, Farmiga's role has been enhanced to give the film a more morally complex viewpoint.

The film is being producer by David Heyman, creator of the Harry Potter franchise.
