Intramovies Nabs World Sales to Locarno Player ‘White Snail,’ an Unconventional Love Story Set in Belarus (EXCLUSIVE)
The first fiction feature by Austrian-German duo Elsa Kremser and Levin Peter marks their return to Locarno after 2019 documentary 'Space Dogs.’
Rome-based Intramovies has taken global sales rights to “White Snail,” the first fiction feature by Austrian-German artistic duo Elsa Kremser and Levin Peter which world premieres in main International Competition at the Locarno Film Festival. The film follows Masha (Marya Imbro), a Belarusian model dreaming of a career in China who finds herself drawn to Misha, a mysterious loner (Mikhail Senkov) working the night shift at a morgue. “In ‘White Snail,’ we devote ourselves to two outsiders, who emanate an uncompromising and yet fragile radiant power – in the midst of living conditions that affect them in two ways: through state repression and shamanic superstition,” explained writers-directors Kremser and Peter.
