‘All Quiet on the Western Front,’ ‘No’ Producer Daniel Dreifuss Instructs Ventana Sur Audience on Crafting an Oscar Campaign


The multi-award-winning producer hosted a Ventana Sur masterclass in Montevideo, his father’s hometown, about how to craft an awards season campaign.

Latin American super-producer Daniel Dreifuss was in his father’s hometown of Montevideo this week to speak to the Ventana Sur film market about how to craft an awards season campaign. It’s clear why the market would want to host Dreifuss as he’s a qualified authority on the subject, having backed Oscar-nominated fare such as Pablo Larraín’s 2012 feature “No” and last year’s four-time Academy Award-winner “All Quiet on the Western Front.” Although the film is based on an iconic book written half a century before he was born, Dreifuss says that his family’s history meant the project always felt extremely personal.
