Dag Johan Haugerud’s Nordic Drama ‘Sex’ Sells to Key Territories Following Berlinale Premiere (EXCLUSIVE)
M-Appeal has closed distribution deals in key territories for 'Sex,' which had its world premiere in the Berlinale's Panorama section.
The film, the first part of the “Sex Dreams Love” trilogy by Norway’s Dag Johan Haugerud, has garnered attention for its thought-provoking exploration of sexuality and gender roles. “There are — and might always be — two sides of the same coin when it comes to sex, which also means that the uncomfortable and the funny sit quite tight,” director Dag Johan Haugerud told Variety in a previous interview. Cinobo’s recent theatrical releases include “Fallen Leaves,” “How to Have Sex” and “Teachers’ Lounge.” Tasos Melemenidis, head of curation and acquisitions, said: “In a time when sexuality and identity are no longer confined to stereotypical definitions, films like this can be both entertaining and educational.”
