‘The Blue Trail,’ Gabriel Mascaro’s Brazil-Set Dystopian Film, Sells Internationally at Berlinale (EXCLUSIVE)
'The Blue Trail,' a strong contender for Berlin's Golden Bear Award, has been acquired by a raft of international distributors.
Paris-based sales banner Lucky Number launched the politically minded movie at the EFM, which runs alongside the festival and sold it to major territories, including Germany (Alamode), France (Paname), Benelux (Imagine), Spain (Karma), Switzerland (Xenix), Portugal (Nitrato), Sweden (Triart), Denmark (Camera), Norway (Arthaus), Baltics (A-One), Poland (Aurora), Czech Republic & Slovakia (Film Europe), Former Yugoslavia (MCF Megacom), Bulgaria (Beta), Hungary (Mozinet), Israel (Lev) , Australia and New Zealand (Palace), Indonesia (Falcon). “ The Blue Trail ” – which marks Brazil’s return to the Berlinale Competition following “All the Dead Ones” in 2020 — unfolds on the banks of the Amazon, and is set in a near future, in a society in which the elderly are invited to exile themselves once their expiration date has passed. “The Blue Trail” is produced by Rachel Daisy Ellis for Brazil’s Desvia, a company whose previous credits include “Neon Bull” and Tatiana Huezo’s “Prayers for the Stolen;” and Sandino Saravia Vinay (“Roma”) at Mexico’s Cinevinay.
