In a welcome sign for a struggling independent film market, the Venice Film Festival kicked off this week with a series of international deals.
Sony Pictures Classics picked up worldwide rights, outside of Italy, for Luca Guadagnino’s documentary, which covers the life of fashion icon Salvatore Ferragamo. Beta Cinema unveiled a series of pre-sales on Uberto Pasolini's, a title from Venice's Orizzonti sidebar. Greek director Christos Nikou's Orizzonti openerThese deals weren't actually struck in Venice. The venerable Italian film festival, unlike the Cannes or Berlin festivals, has never had a true film market.
deal, negotiated between SPC and eOne’s Sierra/Affinity on behalf of the filmmakers, was the first worldwide sale of a 2020 Venice title and bodes well for the coming days as the festival gets into gear., Beta announced it had nearly sold out the film across Europe, with deals reached with ARP in France, A Contracorriente Films in Spain, Piffl Medien in Germany, and Scanbox in Scandinavia, among others.
Alpha Violet also sold multiple territories for its Orizzonti title, with Curzon Artificial Eye in the U.K. and Ireland and Madman picking up Australia and New Zealand rights on Nikou's directorial debut. The fairytale-like story of a world hit by a pandemic that causes amnesia was also selected to play in the canceled Telluride Film Festival. CAA is handling U.S. sales rights.
