Iciar Bollain’s Movistar Plus+ Original ‘I’m Nevenka’ Secures First Pre-Sales as Premium Feature Wraps Production (EXCLUSIVE)
The tailwinds – in audiences and industry –behind ‘I’m Nevenka,’ a tale of society’s collusion in sexual abuse.
Daniel Chabannes’ Epicentre Films, a classic 30-year-old distributor and producer of non-English language art pics, especially from Europe and Latin America, whose recent acquisitions take in San Sebastian Gold Shell winner “The Rye Horn” and Amos Gitai’s “It’s Not Over,” has acquired French rights. A distributor of both big Cannes winners – “Triangle of Sadness,” “Rosetta,” “The Child” – and slightly more out-there propositions, such as Pablo Berger’s silent movie “Blancanieves,” Xenix Film Distribution has clinched rights to Switzerland. Starring Mireia Oriol (“The Girl in the Mirror,” “The Art of Return”) and Urko Olarzabal (“Maixabel”), “I’m Nevenka” is also the first title that has gone into production of five features on the first movie slate from Movistar Plus+, the biggest Spanish pay-TV/SVOD operator, backed by Telefónica, which was announced in January.
