Gullane+ Nabs Distribution Rights to Cannes Classic Doc ‘Para Vigo Me Voy’ About Legendary Brazilian Filmmaker Cacá Diegues
Gullane+ acquires rights to Cannes Classics entry 'Para Vigo Me Voy,' about the life and career of trailblazing director Cacá Diegues
Diegues, who died earlier this year, was one of the key members of Brazil’s renowned Cinema Novo movement and one of the country’s first filmmakers to land large budgets for projects geared for the domestic market. “To Vigo I Go” features excerpts from works and interviews with the filmmaker over a span of 60 years, as well as previously unseen footage of Diegues’s last day of filming and scenes of a final personal meeting between the director and artists who have accompanied him throughout his decades-long, history-making career. Other highlights of Gullane+’s current slate include a much-awaited new project by “The Year My Parents Went on Vacation” director Cao Hamburger, titled “School Without Borders” and Sandra Kogut’s “New Cancun,” co-created and starred by “The Second Mother” Sundance Acting award winner Regina Casé and the sequel to the lauded “Three Summers.”
