Sundance - Awards for European Films Boosted by Film Sales Support

This year's Sundance Film Festival has again been a feast for a number of European films. On 28 January, four films connected to EFP via Film Sales Support (FSS) were awarded at Utah's prestigious festival, which gives selected films from Europe almost exclusive attention from audiences and the industry. Well-known sales companies, TrustNordisk, The Match Factory, Autlook Filmsales and Rise and Shine have had a promotional boost for these lucky price winners:

The Guilty by Gustav Möller, Denmark (Audience Award in World Cinema Dramatic Competition). Magnolia Pictures already secured North American rights for this film!

And Breath Normally by Ísold Uggadóttir, Iceland (Directing Award in World Cinema Dramatic Competition)

Of Fathers and Sons by Talal Derki, Germany, Syria, Lebanon (World Cinema Grand Jury Prize in Documentary Competition)

Genesis 2.0 by Christian Frei, Switzerland (World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Cinematography)

The Swiss Federal Office of Culture / MEDIA Compensating Measures supports the promotion and marketing of national films through SWISS FILMS.
