France’s Still Moving, Uruguay’s Monarca Board Pablo Lamar’s San Sebastian Co-Production Forum Project ‘Remanso’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Set up at Paraguay's Sabaté Films and Sapukai Cine, the project's other co-producers take in San Telmo Filmes in Brazil and Tarea Fina in Argentina.

Lamar won the Special Jury Award in the Tiger Competition at the 2016 Rotterdam Film Festival edition for his debut, “La última tierra.” Written by Sara Pinheiro and based on real-life events, “Remanso” takes place in Paraguay in the ’70s, during one of the most violent periods of Alfredo Stroessner’s dictatorship (1954–1989). The upcoming Europe-Latin America Co-production Forum, taking place Sept. 23-25 in the framework of the San Sebastian Festival, will be the first public pitching of the “Remanso’s” by its co-producers.
