We're very happy to announce one more acquisition ahead of Cannes 2023: LET ME GO by Maxime Rappaz, which will world premiere as the opening film of the Cannes ACID sidebar.
French actress Jeanne Balibar stars in the lead role of Claudine, an elegant woman in her early 50s, who, although living a traditional life, pursues her desires in an unconventional way.
A regular on the Croisette and a well-known figure of French cinema, Balibar won the César Best Actress prize for her lead role in Cannes Un Certain Regard title “Barbara,” directed by Mathieu Amalric (2017), and has starred in award-winning films including “Cold War,” “Les Misérables” and “Memoria.” The film is shot by acclaimed DoP Benoît Dervaux, long-standing collaborator of the Dardenne brothers.

We're very happy to announce POWER ALLEY as our newest acquisition and its World Premiere in Cannes’ Critics’ Week. Set in Brazil, where abortion is illegal, the film is a suspense-filled drama tackling one of society’s most divisive issues.

The title, directed by Romi Tamburello and Federico Actis, follows the story of 17-year-old Vera who, in between school and volleyball classes, rents out an empty flat to teenagers looking for a place to have sex. What starts out as a way to make money develops into Vera’s discovery of her own sexual desires…

Exciting news! We will now be handling eight films by Academy Award winner Hamaguchi Ryûsuke.
The deal includes “Passion" (2008), “Happy Hour” (2015), “Heaven Is Still Far Away” (2016), “Touching the Skin of Eeriness” (2013), “Intimacies” (2012), “The Depths” (2010), “I Love Thee for Good” (2009), and “Like Nothing Happened” (2003) - all titles are available for retrospectives and repertory screenings.

We're very happy to reveal our newest acquisition and its World Premiere at the Tallinn Black Nights FF 2022 soon! The title, directed by Gentian Koçi, is Albania’s official submission for the Academy Awards. Welcome on board, tema!

We're very happy to reveal our new acquisition: VALERIA IS GETTING MARRIED by Michal Vinik.
Set over the course of one day, the film focuses on the relationship between two Ukrainian sisters. Valeria is a mail order bride who arrives in Israel to meet her future husband. She joins her older sister Christina, who has been living in Israel for some time and met her own husband through a similar “bride-to-order” deal.

This is our second collaboration with director Michal Vinik - her first feature film BARASH premiered at San Sebastian in 2015 and became both a festivals and sales hit.
