Ethics, Exile and Eric Cantona: Compelling New Projects Shine at San Sebastian’s 20th Lau Haizetara Co-Production Forum
Projects explore an AP photojournalist’s ethical dilemmas, a Spanish-Chinese gangster transformation, a personal journey by Eric Cantona.
The pitches were presented to a stellar lineup of commissioning and programming execs, including Mehdi Bekkar of Al Jazeera, Sergio Ramos from AMC Networks and Cleo Veger of Dogwoof. At the heart of the film is the discovery of war-time photographs by renowned photojournalist Robert Capa, whose images, lost for 70 years and found in Mexico, led Eric Cantona to recognize his grandfather in a photo taken at the Argelers refugee camp. With solid potential for broad market appeal, “Good and Evil – How To Sell The World a Lie,” directed by Emmy-nominated Kelly Nyks (“The Age of Consequences”) and produced by Solent Production, Doxy Films Netherlands and Creative Company Media, reexamines the Stanford Prison Experiment.
